Rails3 Engine: Gems (paperclip and inherited_resources) not loaded

In my rails3 engine gemfile, I added:

gem 'paperclip'
gem 'inherited_resources'

I also added this to my gemspec:

s.add_d开发者_运维百科ependency "paperclip"
s.add_dependency "inherited_resources"

I then ran bundle install for both my engine and the client app and started up the console for the client app in order to first test paperclip, to which I get:

OK, so it appears the has_attached_file method from the paperclip gem cannot be found. Why? I'm not sure.

Moving on to inherited_resources, I altered a scaffold generated controller to look like the following:

class Blog::ContextsController < InheritedResources::Base
  before_filter :redirect_unless_admin
end

and load up the index page for that to which I am greeted (in the logs) with:

Started GET "/blog/contexts" for 127.0.0.1 at 2011-06-28 12:06:25 -0700

ActionController::RoutingError (uninitialized constant InheritedResources):

My question is why are these not working? My hunch is that there is something about engines, namespacing and loading up gems that I am totally unaware of.

You need to require each gem within your engine in an initializer file, eg. lib/<your_engine_name>/engine.rb

Bit more of an explanation over here...
