With the Messageable gem in my Ruby on Rails app, I can access the New Conversation page successfully and chose a user to send to, a title for the message, and of course the body of the message itself.
However, when I click the send button and the page reloads, I receive the following error message:
ArgumentError in ConversationsController#show
wrong number of arguments (3 for 1..2)
Extracted source (around line #4):
2
3 # Returns the Gravatar for the given user.
4 def gravatar_for(user, options = { size: 80 })
5 gravatar_id = Digest::MD5::hexdigest(user.email.downcase)
6 size = options[:size]
7 gravatar_url = "https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/#{gravatar_id}?s=# {size}"
What could be causing this issue? I'm having so many issues with the New Relic tutorial for Messageable I've been following.. I'm not sure if this error perhaps indicates some problem with there being two seperate gravatar methods that were for two different functions & tutorials (users_helper.rb gravatar method is implemented for profile pictures, from the Hartl tutorial; application_helper.rb gravatar method is implemented for the Messageable new relic tutorial). I don't believe there is any collision between the two causing an error as I haven't been able to fix it yet, but it's a possibility(?)
Anyways, any solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated.
=>Rails version: 4.1.2, Ruby version: 2.1.4
app/helpers/users_helper.rb:
module UsersHelper
# Returns the Gravatar for the given user.
def gravatar_for(user, options = { size: 80 })
gravatar_id = Digest::MD5::hexdigest(user.email.downcase)
size = options[:size]
gravatar_url = "https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/#{gravatar_id}?s=#{size}"
image_tag(gravatar_url, alt: user.username, class: "gravatar")
end
end

In your show
template there is code:
<%= gravatar_for message.sender, 45, message.sender.name %>
Unfortunately you have defined gravatar_for
in two helpers - one in your UsersHelper
, and one in your ApplicationHelper
.
It looks like the definition from UsersHelper
takes precedence over ApplicationHelper
's one. Try removing the one from UserHelper
, so the proper method is called.
Good luck!
EDIT
You've mentioned you want to be able to customise the gravatar
size, and it is possible with your current implementation of UsersHelper#gravatar_for
. Change your code in show
as follows:
<%= gravatar_for message.sender, { size: 45 } %>
Please note I removed the third argument so it doesn't cause any errors. Additionally I passed a hash
with defined size
.
This should do the trick!
Hope that helps!
