Fancy Buttons not so Fancy (Problem with file)
Ben Wilson
I receive the following error when including fancy_buttons:
File to import not found or unreadable: compass/css3.sass
This is my compass configuration:
~/RailsProjects/collaborate$ runner "require 'pp'; pp

sudo gem uninstall chriseppstein-compass
sudo gem install compass --pre
Then make sure rails is using the correct versions of compass by adding it to your environment.rb. if you're vendoring your gems, make sure to remove chriseppstein-compass and references to it in your environment.rb.

Took a bit of effort to get rid of compass, but I did. I believe there
is a dependency issue. I can't run fancy-buttons-0.3.7 without compass-
colors-0.3.1, which requires compass-0.8.17 which breaks fancy-
buttons-0.3.7. What follows is the rabbit hole fancy-buttons has
forced me down for the past hour.
> gem list compass
> *** LOCAL GEMS ***
> compass (0.10.0.pre2)
> gem list fancy-buttons
> *** LOCAL GEMS ***
> sudo gem install fancy-buttons
> Successfully installed compass-0.8.17
> Successfully installed compass-colors-0.3.1
> Successfully installed fancy-buttons-0.3.7
> 3 gems installed
I removed all compass references in my project then did:
> compass -r compass-colors -r fancy-buttons -f fancy-buttons project_directory
When I run the server I get:
> File to import not found or unreadable: fancy_buttons.sass.
Then I follow the advice for an existing project:
> # Add the following lines to your compass configuration file:
> require 'compass-colors'
> require 'fancy-buttons'
> # Then run the following command:
> compass -r fancy-buttons -f fancy-buttons project_directory
And when I start the server I get:
> /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:279:in `activate': can't activate compass (>= 0.10.0.pre2, runtime) for ["fancy-buttons-0.3.7"], already activated compass-0.8.17 for [] (Gem::LoadError)
The issue appears that 'sudo gem install fancy-buttons' installs
'compass-0.8.17'. When I go to remove 'compass-0.8.17', I get the
following:
> You have requested to uninstall the gem:
> compass-0.8.17
> compass-colors-0.3.1 depends on [compass (>= 0.8.7)]
> If you remove this gems, one or more dependencies will not be met.
But, I remove anyway. I get
> /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- compass (MissingSourceFile)

updated my gems. I have both a compass.config and compass.rb. Once I
made sure I put the requires ('compass-colors','fancy-buttons') in the
compass.rb; all was right with the world. Thanks.
I'm including my details for posterity.
gem -v == 1.3.5
gem list compass [compass (0.10.0.pre2), compass-colors (0.3.1)]
gem list fancy-buttons [fancy-buttons (0.3.7)]

compiled.
I use the following gems:
compass (0.10.0.pre5)
compass-colors (0.3.1)
fancy-buttons (0.3.9)
haml (2.2.17)

conclusion that it would be easier to code my own fancy buttons. Too
many dependencies for my taste, and I dont like the fact that it
assumes I want to include an additional stylesheet in my template. For
the record I have installed many other compass plugins without a hitch.

If you do, perhaps you'll consider sharing them. I'd love to see what you come up with.
> Too many dependencies for my taste,
When color functions are available in Sass and when gradient mixins are released with Compass 0.10, fancy buttons will only require the latest stable version of Compass. Until then, *the only way* to use color functions and gradient mixins is by relying on the latest versions of Sass, compass-colors, and a pre-release version of Compass. This isn't because fancy-buttons is a crappy plugin. It's bleeding edge, and many of the technologies it relies on are still in development. I could reduce dependencies by ripping code out of compass-colors, and internalizing the Compass mixins, but that would be foolish since the point of a plugin is to enhance the core library.

Fancy buttons doesn't require you to do this, it simply provides buttons.sass to give you an idea of how the plugin works and let you use it right away, copy it to another file, or delete it and start from scratch. The only thing you have to do to use fancy buttons is add "@import fancy_buttons" to the top of one of your sass files. For example, I have a _base.sass file where I handle all my plugin imports and that's where I import fancy_buttons.
I think the problem here is your misunderstanding of how Compass works. I'm not forcing you to make an additional http request just for button styles. It's just sass, put it wherever you want it to go.

Cool, glad to hear it. Fancy buttons will soon be that way too, but a great deal of that is out of my hands due to the release cycles of Compass and Sass.
