How do I prevent Spork from preloading my routes file in Rails 4?

Question

Spork is preloading my User model, but not any of my other models. (I.e., I have to restart the Spork server every time I make changes to app/models/user.rb.)

Running spork --diagnose tells me that the problem is being caused by Devise. As spork preloads config/routes.rb, it runs the line devise_for :users which preloads the User model.

So how can I prevent this from happening? This page in the Spork documentatation says I should use ::trap_method, by putting into my spec_helper file either the line

Spork.trap_method(Rails::Application, :reload_routes!)

for Rails < 3.1, or

Spork.trap_method(Rails::Application::RoutesReloader, :reload!)

for Rails 3.1. But I've tried both of these and neither of them work. I'm running Rails 4.0.0 and Spork 1.0.0rc4.

How do I get the User class to reload with each run?

Answer 1

In spec/spec_helper.rb reload the models explicitly:

Spork.each_run do
  # reload all the models
  Dir["#{Rails.root}/app/models/**/*.rb"].each do |model|
    load model
  end
end
