fixture_replacement in generators does not work about factory_bot_rails

[mmastoras]

also worked for me w/ following:

Gemfile

group :development do
  gem "factory_girl_rails"
end

config/application.rb

config.generators do |g|
  g.test_framework :rspec, :fixture => true, :views => false
  g.fixture_replacement :factory_girl, :dir => "spec/factories"
end

What version of rails are you using?

[AntonTrapp]

3.2.0

[joshuaclayton]

Weird - I just tried with a 3.2.2 app and it works fine. What version of factory_girl_rails are you using? I tried with 3.0.0 and it worked without a hitch.

[AntonTrapp]

Yes, weird - but on the other side: one of the gems is always itching ;)

factory_girl (3.0.0)
factory_girl_rails (3.0.0)

Maybe a side effect with another gem? rspec? rails3-generators? shoulda? Anything known?

Can you paste your Gemfile.lock and your config/application.rb? My guess is that it may be another generator, but I'm not positive. I've tried a couple of different Rails versions, with and without the fixture_replacement defined in the config (it gets used by default). If it generates the factories for you, I'd just remove it.

[AntonTrapp]

Sure! Glad if I can help, really love this girl ;)

application.rb: https://gist.github.com/2252149

[joshuaclayton]

I've got nothing... sorry. Here's a repo that I made with what looks to be the core pieces of fixtures and the rails app: https://github.com/joshuaclayton/fgr_fixture_replacement_example Walk through the commits and you can see what I did (I even outlined the commands I ran). If you can find a way to reproduce in a similar fashion, that'd be great. The only thing I notice a difference in is the patch version of Rails, so try bumping up to 3.2.2. If that doesn't work, finding a way to reproduce will be the only way you can help me I think. Once you find a way to repro, reopen this issue if you could. Thanks!

[AntonTrapp]

Thanks, I figure it out this weekend and will be back again (with a reproduction of the error or the solution to the problem)...

I have almost same problem.
This problem is made by FactoryGirls version 3.0.0.

/lib/generators/factory_girl/model/model_generator.rb

module FactoryGirl
  module Generators
    class ModelGenerator < Base
      argument :attributes, :type => :array, :default => [], :banner => "field:type field:type"
      class_option :dir, :type => :string, :default => "test/factories", :desc => "The directory where the factories should go"

      def create_fixture_file
        version = nil
        begin
          require 'factory_girl/version'
          version = FactoryGirl::VERSION.to_i
        rescue LoadError
          require 'factory_girl'
          version = Factory::VERSION.to_i
        rescue Object => e
          raise "Please install Factory_girl or add it to your Gemfile"
        end

        template "fixtures.#{version}.rb", File.join(options[:dir], "#{table_name}.rb")
      end
    end
  end
end

with factory_girl 3.0.0 , generator should find fixture for version 3

template "fixtures.#{version}.rb", File.join(options[:dir], "#{table_name}.rb")

Now, fixture templates for factory_girl are just 'fixtures.1.rb, fixtures.2.rb' in template directory.
So you could solve this problem just to copy fixtures.2.rb to fixtures.3.rb in generators/factory_girl/model/templates

I could find exact solution. (ye.. I need solution right now.) See below comments

[neocoin]

@AntonTrapp

hm. This situation is slightly complex.

factory_girl_rails have fixture generator for factory_girl. This feature moved from rails3-generator 5 month ago.

• indirect/rails3-generators@31a4302
• indirect/rails3-generators@cd6f407

But rails3-generator 0.17.4 gem have factory_girl generator yet.
And, even if factory_girl fixture generators are removed from current rails3-generator master source,
master branch have useless 'generators/factory_girl.rb' file yet.

• https://github.com/indirect/rails3-generators/blob/master/lib/generators/factory_girl.rb

So if you point with 'gem rails3-generator, :git => https://github.com/indirect/rails3-generators.git', you could not solve this problem. ;;

I made temporal solution for me in 'https://github.com/neocoin/rails3-generators.git' 3 minute ago.
I just remove factory_girl generator.... (Also I requested pull to master)

So you could use temporal solution below until this patch will apply master version. Or fork me and use user repository.

group :development do
  gem 'factory_girl_rails'
  gem "rails3-generators", :git => "https://github.com/neocoin/rails3-generators.git"
end

good luck.

[joshuaclayton]

Yeah, it looks like rails3-generators is the culprit. My recommendation is removing the gem until the rails3-generators gem removes the factory_girl generator and bumps the gem version. Good luck!

[JeanMertz]

I am having the same issue. I uninstalled the rails3-generators gem but I am still having the same issue.

application.rb

    config.generators do |g|
      g.test_framework :rspec, fixture: true
      g.fixture_replacement :factory_girl, dir: 'spec/factories'
      g.form_builder :simple_form
      g.template_engine :haml
    end

Here is my command:

Usage:
  rails generate oauth_provider [NAME] [options]

Options:
      [--skip-namespace]        # Skip namespace (affects only isolated applications)
      [--old-style-hash]        # Force using old style hash (:foo => 'bar') on Ruby >= 1.9
  -o, [--orm=NAME]              # Orm to be invoked
                                # Default: active_record
  -t, [--test-framework=NAME]   # Test framework to be invoked
                                # Default: rspec
  -e, [--template-engine=NAME]  # Template engine to be invoked
                                # Default: haml

Rspec options:
  [--fixture]                   # Indicates when to generate fixture
                                # Default: true
  [--fixture-replacement=NAME]  # Fixture replacement to be invoked
                                # Default: factory_girl

And here is the output:

      invoke  rspec
      create    spec/controllers/oauth_clients_controller_spec.rb
      create    spec/models/client_application_spec.rb
      create    spec/models/oauth_token_spec.rb
      create    spec/models/oauth2_token_spec.rb
      create    spec/models/oauth2_verifier_spec.rb
      create    spec/models/oauth_nonce_spec.rb
       error    factory_girl [not found]

[AntonTrapp]

@joshuaclayton - sorry for the delay, I can confirm that removing and uninstalling the rails3-generators solves the issue for me too.
Thank you very much!

[dustineichler]

@mmastoras grazie, that worked.

[jspooner]

Thank you @mmastoras that worked for our app.

[AntonTrapp]

@mmastoras Thank you, worked for me too!

[pavankat]

@mmastoras When I tried your solution I got this:

/Users/pkat/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activesupport-3.2.12/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:251:in `require': dlopen(/Users/pkat/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/nokogiri-1.6.0/lib/nokogiri/nokogiri.bundle, 9): Library not loaded: /Users/pkat/.bundler/tmp/25324/gems/nokogiri-1.6.0/ports/i686-apple-darwin11/libxml2/2.8.0/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (LoadError)

[joshuaclayton]

@pavankat it looks Nokogiri was compiled against a (now-?)nonexistent version of libxml.
