I am trying to make hstore work with sinatra 1.4.4 and sinatra-activerecord (1.5.0) in a Postgre database
I work with ruby-1.9.3-p392 with the gems
gem 'sinatra'
gem 'thin'
gem 'sinatra-formhelpers'
gem 'pg'
gem 'activerecord'
gem "sinatra-activerecord"
gem 'rake'
gem 'activerecord-postgres-hstore'
gem 'activesupport'
group :development, :test do
gem 'rspec'
gem 'capybara'
gem 'pry'
end
These are my migrations:
class AddHstore < ActiveRecord::Migration
def up
execute 'CREATE EXTENSION hstore'
end
def down
execute 'DROP EXTENSION hstore'
end
end
class CreateEngineParameters < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :engine_parameters do |t|
t.hstore :kind
t.timestamps
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :engine_parameters
end
end
With these lines in the model engine_parameter.rb:
require 'active_record'
require 'activerecord-postgres-hstore'
class EngineParameter < ActiveRecord::Base
serialize :kind, ActiveRecord::Coders::Hstore
end
Then when in console I want to create an object with hstore:
a = EngineParameter.new
=> #<EngineParameter id: nil, kind: {}, created_at: nil, updated_at: nil>
a.kind['test'] = "test"
=> "test"
a
=> #<EngineParameter id: nil, kind: {"test"=>"test"}, created_at: nil, updated_at: nil>
a.save
NoMethodError: undefined method `scan' for {"test"=>"test"}:Hash
from /Users/mycomputername/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392@myproject/gems/pg-hstore-1.2.0/lib/pg_hstore.rb:24:in `load'
Then I tried again :
a.save
NoMethodError: undefined method `map' for "\"test\"=>\"test\"":String
from /Users/mycomputername/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392@myproject/gems/pg-hstore-1.2.0/lib/pg_hstore.rb:49:in `dump'
I didn't found the answer to my question. The closest was here : https://gist.github.com/bru/3258069, but wasn't enough.
There is something I do wrong, but can't find what.
