Vpim::Vcard - Parsing vcard 2.1

My code must parse Vcard 2.1 format. I am using vpim(there are no other libs)

When I run Vpim::Vcard.decode(data) I get error:

undefined method `each' for #<String:0x0000000928e778>

StackTrace:

  NoMethodError (undefined method `each' for #<String:0x0000000928e778>):

    vpim (0.695) lib/vpim/vcard.rb:692:in `decode'
    app/models/event.rb:71:in `block (2 levels) in parse_data'

I tryed to run gem install vcard and to require 'vcard' directry(config.gem does not include this file after vpim gem) after RailsApp initialization.(config.gem 'vpim' is included in environment.rb) By this way I get another error:

;=D0=9D=D0=B0=D0=B4=D1=80=D0=B0=20=D0=B1=D0=B0=D0=BD=D0=BA=20=D0=BE=D0=BB=

(Exception class is Vpim::InvalidEncodingError)

Vcard code I try parse:

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
REV:20090710T151929Z
TEL;CELL:80954130722
X-CLASS:private
END:VCARD

StackTrace:

How is it possible to parse Vcard 2.1 in rails?

The problem is that String#each has been removed in Ruby 1.9.1. (Its functionality endures in String#each_line). To fix/work around this bug, do any of the following:

• Run your rails app on Ruby 1.8.7.
• You can edit the Vpim code to use String#each_line appropriately (and send the vpim authors a patch)

• You can monkey-patch the String class by defining the each method

  class String
    alias_method :each, :each_line
  end
  

• Switch to the vcard gem, which is taken from Vpim and which has Ruby 1.9.1 support.

I recommend the 4th option.
