I found a post with a headline quite similar to this one, but it didn't give me the answer I was looking for. I am trying to use builder inside a model. The code looks something like this:
require 'builder'
class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
...
def create_xml
xml = Builder::XmlMarkup.new( :indent => 2)
...
end
...
end
When I try to execute this code, I get the following error:
NameError: uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Associations::Builder::XMLMarkup
But, when I try the same thing within the rails console, everything works just fine.
Am I missing something? Any help would be much appreciated.
Found the answer.
You have to append Builder to the rootlevel, like this:
xml = ::Builder::XmlMarkup.new( :indent => 2 )
