Rails 5 - Gives Warning for no ApplicationRecord dashboard

[bjkeeton]

I noticed when using the Rails5 beta that the following warning comes up:

WARNING: Unable to generate a dashboard for ApplicationRecord.
         It is not connected to a database table.
         Make sure your database migrations are up to date.

Since ApplicationRecord will never be connected to a database, the warning is pointless.

Right now, I feel as though I know enough to be dangerous, but I can't figure out how to get this to go through and pass (or even if the test/fix is correct). Anyone know a quick fix for this one, or can point out what I'm doing wrong?

My fork is here, with my ideas, but I can't get the tests to pass because I'm not 100% on the syntax at this point: https://github.com/GeekFitness/administrate

I saw that error and got another one myself:

% rails generate administrate:install
Running via Spring preloader in process 16597
   identical  app/controllers/admin/application_controller.rb
/home/cies/.rbenv/versions/2.3.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/railties-5.0.0/lib/rails/generators/named_base.rb:106:in `map!': undefined method `camelize' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
[...]

But maybe that's due to me having a bunch of tables in my postgres without having AR models for them (otherwise is is a freshly scaffolded rails 5 app). I'll retry on an empty db.

Once I started with a clean scaffolded rails 5 app, with only a scaffolded Post model. Then it "just worked".

Now I run into this problem:

 Showing ~/.rbenv/versions/2.3.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/bundler/gems/administrate-c4922bf12435/app/views/administrate/application/index.html.erb where line #31 raised:

File to import not found or unreadable: bourbon.

Cies, I get

File to import not found or unreadable: bourbon.

When I do it, too. I actually moved off that branch and went on to another project because nothing I could do would fix it, even different version of bourbon.

My gemfile was the one suggested:

gem 'administrate', github: 'greetpoint/administrate', branch: 'rails5'
gem 'bourbon', '~> 5.0.0.beta.5' 

I event tried normal bourbon, too.

[cies]

I got:

gem "administrate", git: "https://github.com/thoughtbot/administrate.git", branch: "rails-5"
gem "bourbon"
gem "neat"

Fixed the bourbon issue, but I got the feeling not all is working well yet (missing the experience with a good working version of administrate to make solid claims).

I think I go with rails 4 and administrate -- @bjkeeton what project did you go with?

[bjkeeton]

I'm still using Rails 5 for the project, I think. I haven't made a CMS decision yet, but if you've solved the bourbon issue, I will give this a shot and see.

EDIT: Still didn't fix it. Tried gem 'bourbon' and the beta one.

I also ran into issues using Rails 5 and Bourbon. Bourbon 5.0 beta changes many things, so when I integrated administrate, which required me to go back to the 4.2 Bourbon version but broke my previous application completely. But to get the bourbon working, you need to change the Bourbon dependency in the gemspec to allow version 5.0. It seemed to bundle correctly, but I haven't really tried to check if everything else works.

[bjkeeton]

Now I'm getting this error when going back with a clean application:

There are two issues happening here.

1. Bourbon problems. There an issue ( Dependency on bourbon not listed #615 ) for this problem.
2. Dashboard problems. These happen because your administrate tries to generate dashboards for all your models but can only actually work with database-backed models. To fix delete references to non-database-backed dashboards from your dashboards.rb file.

I'm going to close the issue but feel free to continue discussing Bourbon issues on #615
