Geokit version 1.8.4 incompatible for mapknitter.

[vidhunv1]

For a fresh installation of mapknitter gems:install will fetch Geokit>=0 (1.8.4) which throws error unintialized constant Rails:plugin:Geokit. However downgrading the version to config.gem "geokit", :version => '1.5.0' resolved the issue.

I'm not sure what is causing this but I even tried require 'geokit' in config/environment.rb with no luck.

What version of geokit is the live version of mapknitter running?

Also wouldn't it be better to specify to specify working version for all mapknitter gem dependencies, this way it will be guaranteed to work smooth.

Geokit version 1.1.4 is working smoothly. Use gem install geokit-rails -v 1.1.4 for it's installation. While current versions of some dependencies are working properly some require specific compatible versions. If you can keep a note of the versions of dependencies while installing mapknitter then it would add greatly to the installer guide.

Actually if one of you submits a pull request with versioned gem dependencies that'd be really helpful. On Apr 19, 2014 8:59 AM, "anishshah101" notifications@github.com wrote:

Hi, Anish - can you actually put this into config/environment.rb, so when rake gems:install is run, the correct versions are fetched and installed automatically? Thanks!

I believe the dependencies are much improved now; closing
