Rails 5

[Donald Ziesig]

Hi All:

Do we have a version of Hobo that works with Rails 5.x?

When I tried to gem install, I got many error messages referencing Rails
4.2.5.1

Or, is there any way to hack it so it installs on 5.x? I am willing to
work around the issues (and perhaps submit fixes).

Thanks,

Don Ziesig

Oops, gem install worked, I got the error messages doing "hobo new
thingybob --setup"

I then reverted to Rails 4.2.5.2, gem install hobo, new thingybob
--setup etc. The website came up, but without styling.

Next trying: "new thingybob" without --setup

I just regenerated thingybob using all defaults. (no --setup). I got
the same results - front page with no styling.
Then, once I signed up and tried to access "Things", it crashed with a
long dump. Will take some time to analyze and figure out what went
wrong. Will post results later.

Hi Don,

the Rails Version currently supported is 4.2.5.

Best regards,

Thanks to Paul and Stefan, the master branch now works with Rails
4.2.5.1 and Sprockets 3.

Rails 5 support will come, hopefully quickly after Rails 5 final release.

Warm regards,
Ignacio

Hi everyone,

I just released Hobo 2.2.5, to make it easier to use the latest Rails
4.2.5.1. Thanks a lot!

Warm regards,
Ignacio

Btw, I updated my app to 4.2.5.2 already, no problems so far :-)

Ciao,

Stefan

Any plans to support Rails 5?

[Ed Gomolka]

I think that the short answer to this is "yes", but I don't think that there is a specific target date for it.

I have been playing with it myself. I have been trying to get Hobo running on MRI Ruby 2.41/Rails 5.1 for a pre-existing Hobo app, but no luck so far. I can bring the server up, and the dryml pages appear to be compiling, but when I try to bring up the site in my browser, I get an exception before I get to the login page ("undefined method `tag_options' for #<#<Class:0x00561315592df0>:0x00561317df9208>").

I'm guessing that it might be due to a conflict between Erubis and Erubi, as Rails 5 moved from Erubis to Erubi for it's ERB implementation. Hobo uses Erubis to compile the dryml files.

Rails 5 requires quite a few changes, both to Hobo and to any pre-existing web app.
If I can get my web app to run, I will load my modified Hobo code onto GitHub and submit a pull request, but I'm not there yet.

Has anyone else had any luck moving to Rails 5? I would love to compare notes.
