Expected … to define Base

[Zeck]

I new to rails. I have a setup in the lib directory like so:

lib/
   blog/
     core/
        search/
            base.rb

The base.rb defines the Base class as well:

module Blog
  module Core
    module Search
      class Base

        attr_accessor :properties

        def initialize(params)
          @properties = {}
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

I have the following code in my application.rb

config.autoload_paths += Dir["#{config.root}/lib/**/"]

When I include it in posts controller I get following errors:

LoadError in PostsController#index

Expected /home/usr/code/blog/lib/blog/core/search/base.rb to define Base

Any idea? I'm using rails 3.2.5 with RVM. Thank you for every advice.

Please help me.

This is kind of interesting. I want to spend some time tomorrow to debug this kind of issues (that happens very frequently), unless someone gets to it first.

Is it bug?

Try just adding lib/ to autoload_paths - the ** part is tripping it up, so it's deciding that your file should define 'Base', not Blog::Core::Search::Base.

BTW, if you're new to Rails you may want to try learning it more idiomatically before dumping a jumbo-sized bucket of OO overdesign on it with all these modules...
