rails 1.16
plug-in seems to be installed properly and it seems simple enough...
$ ls -l vendor/plugins/excel/ vendor/plugins/excel/lib/ vendor/plugins/excel/: total 16 -rw-rw-r-- 1 craig craig 2952 Sep 9 15:38 init.rb drwxrwxr-x 2 craig craig 4096 Sep 9 15:38 lib
vendor/plugins/excel/lib/: total 12 -rw-rw-r-- 1 craig craig 6603 Sep 9 15:38 excel.rb
but when I try to use it, I get an error that the method isn't available to my Controller...
NoMethodError undefined method `addWorksheetFromActiveRecord' for Excel::Workbook:Class (this is the from the simple example methodology). I can see that the method is indeed in the Workbook Class of the Excel module. vendor/excel/init.rb does have the requisite require 'excel'
This is the controller code... def staff_list_all_export @personnel = Personnel.current # this works for other methods in this controller e = Excel::Workbook e.addWorksheetFromActiveRecord "Staff Roster", "personnel", @personnel headers['Content-Type'] = "application/vnd.ms-excel" render_text(e.build) end
I don't have this issue with any other plugin that I am using.
Anyone with a guess?
