how to use gem generator carter rails

Question

I'm trying to use the carter gem for my rails project. How do I use the gem to generate its pre-made controllers, views, and models? There is no documentation for carter, so my attempt was to try rails g carter and rails g carter:install, both of which returned the following:

from bin/rails:4:in `<main>'

So two questions: Were my commands the correct ones, and if so, then how do I begin solving the above error (and what is the above error? Dependencies?) ? If my commands were not correct, then what is the correct way of generating M's and V's and C's from a gem, specifically carter?

Answer 1

I know this is getting a bit off course, but you really don't want a gem that hasn't been touched in two years.

Consider the follwing instead:

• Spree
• ror_ecommerce
• Paying for Shopify
