Can't disable strong params

[anazar]

This config.protector.strong_parameters = false in application.rb is giving this error method_missing': undefined methodprotector' for #Rails::Application::Configuration:0x007fccb43d8410 (NoMethodError)

I also tried creating an initializer which failed as well.

@anazar - You need to use Protector.config.strong_parameters = false instead – and I'd suggested placing it in config/initializers/protector.rb instead of in config/application.rb. Here's what your file should look like:

# config/initializers/protector.rb
Protector.config.strong_parameters = false

@fdeschenes not really true. @anazar is right – there should be ability to make it using Rails config, Protector has all appropriate accessors for that. I'll check it right now.

@inossidabile My bad – that said, the README suggests using Protector.config.strong_parameters = false which is why I suggested the initializer.

I have just generated an empty Rails application. Here's how my application.rb looks:

require File.expand_path('../boot', __FILE__)

require 'rails/all'

# Require the gems listed in Gemfile, including any gems
# you've limited to :test, :development, or :production.
Bundler.require(:default, Rails.env)

module Foobar
  class Application < Rails::Application
    config.protector.strong_parameters = false
    # Settings in config/environments/* take precedence over those specified here.
    # Application configuration should go into files in config/initializers
    # -- all .rb files in that directory are automatically loaded.

    # Set Time.zone default to the specified zone and make Active Record auto-convert to this zone.
    # Run "rake -D time" for a list of tasks for finding time zone names. Default is UTC.
    # config.time_zone = 'Central Time (US & Canada)'

    # The default locale is :en and all translations from config/locales/*.rb,yml are auto loaded.
    # config.i18n.load_path += Dir[Rails.root.join('my', 'locales', '*.{rb,yml}').to_s]
    # config.i18n.default_locale = :de
  end
end

It works properly. Which version of Rails are you using?

@fdeschenes https://github.com/inossidabile/protector/blob/master/README.md#options, last paragraph:

Protector features basic Rails integration so you can assign options using `config.protector.option = value` at your `config/*.rb`.

So you should probably get rid of initializer too :yum:

I'm using rails4... i tried both methods...

I can't put it in the initializer file or application.rb.

That said – it works for me. Can you show me your Gemfile and actual initializer (or config) code?

[inossidabile]

any news so far?
