Pundit with namespaced controllers

Question

The policy_scope works perfectly finding the correct policy named Admin::RemittancePolicy but authorize method not.

module Admin
  class RemittancesController < AdminController # :nodoc:
    ...

    def index
      @remittances = policy_scope(Remittance).all

      render json: @remittances
    end

    def show
      authorize @remittance

      render json: @remittance
    end

    ...
  end
end

Take a look at output error:

"#<Pundit::NotDefinedError: unable to find scope `RemittancePolicy::Scope` for `Remittance(...)`>"

Perhaps a error with pundit, I really not know how fix it. Thanks.

    # def policy_scope!(user, scope)
    #   model = scope.is_a?(Array) ? scope.last : scope
    #   PolicyFinder.new(scope).scope!.new(user, model).resolve
    # end

    def policy_scope(scope)
      super [:admin, scope]
    end

    def authorize(record, query = nil)
      super [:admin, record], query
    end
  end

Your stacktrace says the error comes from

app/policies/admin/admin_policy.rb:9:in 'scope'

That's this:

def scope
  Pundit.policy_scope! user, record.class
end

record.class evaluates to Remittance, so if I understand what you're trying to do, you need to change scope to

def scope
  Pundit.policy_scope! user, [:admin, record.class]
end
