Metric-fu in my Rails 3 app won't run

Installed metric-fu in a Rails 3 app by putting it in my Gemfile. But when I run the rake task it fails. Error below, any idea how to solve this anyone?

$ rake metrics:all --trace

I think its an rcov problem. Ryan mentions it in the railscast if so

# Gemfile
gem "simplecov", :require => false, :group => :test

# .metrics
MetricFu::Configuration.run do |config|
  config.metrics -= [:rcov]
end

http://railscasts.com/episodes/252-metrics-metrics-metrics

That line has changed in the latest version of metric_fu, so I'd recommend upgrading to the latest gem: http://rubygems.org/gems/metric_fu/versions/2.1.1

With that change, you at least won't get a fatal error related to chr being undefined.

The problem is Ruby 1.9, I've reported an issue, and got an almost immediate reply saying the problem is not metric_fu but some of the metrics that doesn't understand 1.9 syntax

https://github.com/jscruggs/metric_fu/issues/72

I installed metrical as a wrapper for metric_fu and I am running Rails 3.1rc4 and Ruby 1.9.2

I got a bunch of errors which prevented anything from happening and after Googling found other people saying that they got a result by removing rcov, reek, flog and flay so I did the same but I've actually found by adding back one at a time that it's really only flog that is causing this error to be fatal. So I'd suggest adding a .metrics file into the root directory of your rails application - here's mine:

MetricFu::Configuration.run do |config|  
#   config.metrics -= [:rcov]  
#   config.metrics -= [:reek]  
#   config.metrics -= [:flay]  
  config.metrics -= [:flog]
end  

This works fine now and I have almost complete coverage from metric_fu.

I'm the new maintainer of metric_fu and it should work now without any problems. See configuration instructions at https://github.com/metricfu/metric_fu

Also, it works from the command-line now. Now need to bundle it or run rake or metrical
