Compatibility problem with ActiveAdmin gem

[maziz]

When used alongwith ActiveAdmin gem, the Edit views (of entities registered in admin) always raise this error:

---

Unknown action

AbstractController::ActionNotFound

---

( My setup : Rails 3.1.3 , Ruby 1.9.3 , rbEnv )

this is happening to me too

I also reported this as an issue to active_admin.

Here's a workaround:

Looksee.rename(:edit => 'looksee_edit')

This is also an issue if you have modules with the action edit and include them in a controller.

Let's say you have:

#Accounts edit
module AccountsEditor
  def edit
     @account = Account.new
     render partial: 'edit'
  end

And then:

class UserAccountController < ApplicationController
  include AccountsEditor

  def index
     @users = Users.all
  end
end

Before require 'looksee':

  UserAccountController.action_methods
  #<Set: {"index", "edit"}>

After:

  UserAccountController.action_methods
  #<Set: {"index"}>

Although @skyjumper suggested a great workaround I don't think this small issue should prevent us from using this awesome gem.

What do you think @oggy?

Sorry for the long delay.

I hear you guys - method collisions are never fun. Looksee.rename was intended for exactly these sorts of use cases, but I get that edit was a particularly bad choice due to Rails controller conventions.

I'll get on this. My latest thought is to do object.ls.edit rather than object.edit. The idea being that everything Looksee does should be "namespaced" under ls (which can still be rename-d). Let me know if any thoughts.

:+1: on the namespaced edit under ls

Pushed this in v2.0.0.
