#279 invalid

merb_datamapper should show friendly error message if an invalid environment flag is passed to CLI

Reported by Alex Coles | May 13th, 2008 @ 08:59 AM

Currently, if an invalid environment is passed (environments are case-sensitive) then a less-than friendly error message is presented to the user.

For example:

merb -i -e test

works, but

merb -i -e TEST

presents the following error message to a user:

/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/merb_datamapper-0.9.3/lib/merb/orms/data_mapper/connection.rb:63:in `symbolize_keys': undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

    Yeah... CLI should take a DM connection string and search for models in the path I think. It needs some small amount of updates to make this happen.

    • State changed from “new” to “invalid”
    • Assigned user cleared.

    Alex, sorry to do this to you, but merb_datamapper has been transfered back to the merb team for maintenance, so you probably want to take this up with them.
