uninitialized constant Tilt (NameError) when running convert_book.rb

[rdhyee]

When I try to run to convert an AsciiDoc file in my folder (dubliners, in case):

ruby scripts/convert_book.rb dubliners

I run into the following error:

Failed to parse source, uninitialized constant Tilt (NameError)

in the context of the full error message:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.2.0/gems/asciidoctor-1.5.2/lib/asciidoctor.rb:1362:in `rescue in load': asciidoctor: FAILED: <stdin>: Failed to parse source, uninitialized constant Tilt (NameError)

I'm running

ruby 2.2.0p0 (2014-12-25 revision 49005) [x86_64-darwin13]

I get the same problem regardless what AsciiDoc file I have in dubliners.

I'm a newbie rubyist, so I might be simply making a rookie error. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

I think @sethwoodworth provided me with the solution: add

require 'tilt'

to convert_books.rb. Let me try the solution more thoroughly and issue a PR if I think that is the solution.

Changes I've been making so far in getting asciidoctor-htmlbook to work for me: https://github.com/oreillymedia/asciidoctor-htmlbook/compare/master...rdhyee:master

Thanks for sharing this! Much appreciated! I was getting the exact same errors.

As of commit 9404c4fdd13925874d2a863a6ceecae4d6acc444 on 8/11/2015 (or sooner) all my build issues were resolved simply adding: require 'tilt' to convert_books.rb. I didn't have to do anything else and HTMBook now builds perfectly.
