Don't force install of unused RDBMSs (mysql)

[david-a-wheeler]

rails_db looks really cool! However, when I install the gem, it fails & forces me to install mysql through the system package manager, even though we never use that in our application. It shouldn't force me install things I don't use; in our case we only use sqlite in development and Postgres in production (and I plan to use rails_db only in development). Can you trim down the dependencies so that you don't have to install mysql when you don't use it? Thanks!

Hi David, yes, you right, I plan to remove this dependency soon

Excellent. Thanks for the gem, it really is neat. Once you have that I intend to add it to my project dependencies for development. --- David A.Wheeler

Same with the Postgres dependency. I do not use, nor will I be using, postgres in any of my current projects.

checking for pg_config... no No pg_config... trying anyway. If building fails, please try again with --with-pg-config=/path/to/pg_config checking for libpq-fe.h... no Can't find the 'libpq-fe.h header *** extconf.rb failed ***

[igorkasyanchuk]

yes, I know It's going to be solved soon, I think I've already code in master branch with fix, or on my computer, just need to test it

[igorkasyanchuk]

@mikek68 , @david-a-wheeler please try now and let me know how it works for you (version 0.7.1)

[mikek68]

@igorkasyanchuk gem install was successful, however, upon navigating to http://localhost:3000/rails/db, I received the following error:

wrong number of arguments (1 for 2) forasset-url' (in /Users/[my user name]/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.5@lcl_reservations/gems/rails_db-0.7.1/app/assets/stylesheets/rails_db/app.css.scss)`

I don not know if that is a result of my environment, or if there is something else that needs to be done to include the necessary assets. I did not generate the initializer file as I did not need to modify any default settings.

[igorkasyanchuk]

maybe this is a solution https://github.com/Compass/compass-rails/issues/155 ?

[mikek68]

Although I am not using compass, I will take a look at the issue as it pertains to sass-rails. Thank you.

[igorkasyanchuk]

but maybe issue because of old version of sass, sass-rails gem? mine are: sass (3.4.19) sass-rails (5.0.4)

[mikek68]

Yes, that is what I am looking at as well.

[mikek68]

I am using rails 3.2, not 4.0. Those versions only appear to be available to rails 4.0.

[igorkasyanchuk]

try to run "bundle update sass" or "bundle update sass-rails" ... something like that I've never tested it with Rails 3.2, I just have an automated tests and they are passed, but this is maybe assets were not precompiled. let me know later which versions works for you.

[paulanunda]

Thanks for the quick turnaround on this @igorkasyanchuk

[david-a-wheeler]

@igorkasyanchuk - that was fast! I tried out version 0.7.1 and it seems to work perfectly on ruby 2.2.2, rails 4.2.4, and sqlite3 version 1.3.11.

Thanks so much! I'm adding this to my dev environment.

Feel free to close this out.
