Rails: Rails_best_practices - command not found when run on a rails model

I have this line of code:

output = `rails_best_practices /home/jordi/src/adventureManag开发者_StackOverflow中文版er/app`

When I run that in irb, or inside any .rb and I call that .rb from ruby output get some content.

But when I call it inside my model output gets an empty string.

Instead other commands like

output = `cat /home/jordi/src/adventureManager/app/*`

will work everywhere, including inside models I am pretty clueless about this problem

What's rails_best_practices? is it in your path? My guess is that you got a command not found to stderr when you ran it inside the model.

Or you might try using something like the following from your app root:

output = `bundle exec rails_best_practices /home/jordi/src/adventureManager/app`

Good luck!

I had this same concern when working on a Rails 6 application.

After adding the rails_best_practices gem to my Gemfile:

group :development, :test do
  gem 'rails_best_practices', '~> 1.20'
end

I ran the command below to install it in my application:

bundle install

However, when I ran the command rails_best_practices ., I get the error below:

rails_best_practices: command not found

Here's how I fixed it:

The issue was that the path of the rails_best_practices executable was not yet available in my current shell/terminal.

I simply closed the current shell/terminal I was on and re-opened a new one.

This time when I ran rails_best_practices ., it worked fine.

That's all.

I hope this helps
