I tried to install Vanity gem for my rails 2.3.5 application and I want to use MySQL for vanity. Everything is working great when I configure it with redis but when I change the config file to use mysql :
development:
adapter: active_record
active_record_adapter: mysql
host: localhost
database: vanity
username: root
password:
I get the following error :
Showing
/Users/dries/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p302/gems/vanity-1.5.3/lib/vanity/templates/_ab_test.erb where line #1 raised:
Vanity::Adapters::ActiveRecordAdapter is not missing constant
VanityConversion! Extracted source (around line #1):
1: <% score = experiment.score %>
2: <table>

/Users/dries/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p302/gems/vanity-1.5.3/lib/vanity/templates/_report.erb
I added in environment file development.rb :
Vanity.playground.establish_connection :development
Vanity.playground.collecting = true
So it has to do something with the adapter included in the vanity gem, because redis is working perfect. Somebody who knows a solution?
I haven't figured out the cause for this yet, but I got it to work by being more explicit with the class names for the has_many associations in the active_record_adapter.rb file:
has_many :vanity_metric_values, :class_name => "Vanity::Adapters::ActiveRecordAdapter::VanityMetricValue"
has_many :vanity_conversions, :dependent => :destroy, :class_name => "Vanity::Adapters::ActiveRecordAdapter::VanityConversion"
Edit: This seems to break the migration process when booting up vanity for the first time (which I'm working to fix!), but may help you on your way to a solution.
