Rvm Ruby + Chef + Code Intelligence

Support
1

I’ve been trying to get code intelligence working with the following setup on Linux with Komodo X:

  • CentOS 7
  • ruby installed with rvm
  • Chef

However, I can’t get Code Intelligence working. I’ve tried manually adding the Chef libraries to the project settings under Ruby but no luck. The Activity window shows a lot of errors. The code intelligence log doesn’t show anything helpful.
It’s not even tab-completing variable names declared in the same .rb file. Is Ruby a more troublesome language for code intel?
It generally works fine for me with Python code.
Is there a trick to getting such a setup working?

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

First of all, do you get code intelligence with just a simple Ruby file? (Variable completions, stdlib completions, etc.)

Would you please share the errors in the activity window? I suspect they’ll be in Help > Troubleshooting > View Log File.

Thanks!

Hi, Mitchell:

Yes, with a simple Ruby file, code completion works fine.

I noticed when I begin typing:

require ’

that ‘chef’ is not in the list of libraries that are presented.

Help -> Troubleshooting -> View Log File failed with a file not found. I found a debug log under .komodoide/10.1/ but the IDE was looking under .komodoide/10.2/.
I restarted the IDE from the command-line instead of the Linux desktop menu and then it created a debug log under .komodoide/10.2/. I’ll paste the contents below.

The simple Ruby file I used for testing is:

 #!/usr/bin/env ruby

 require 'chef/knife'

 puts "testing"

 class Chef
    class Knife
      class TestKnife < Knife
      end
    end
 end

Chef files are installed under /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.4.1/gems/chef-13.1.31/lib/chef/

Hi, thanks for the detailed response. So Ruby codeintel is working. It just doesn’t recognize Chef yet. Have you added /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.4.1/gems/chef-13.1.31/lib/chef/ to Edit > Preferences > Languages > Ruby > Additional Import Directories?

Hi Mitchell, thanks for the suggestion. Yes, I tried both of these variations:
/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.4.1/gems/chef-13.1.31/lib/chef/
and
/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.4.1/gems/chef-13.1.31/lib

I also tried completely resetting my configuration (delete ~/.komodoide) then entering the above options (one at a time) in the Additional Import Directories, tested on a test Ruby file but still no luck. I watched the Notifications window to make sure the code intel data was fully populated before trying.

Another thing I tried doing was changing the Ruby interpreter to /usr/local/rvm/bin/rvm-auto-ruby but that didn’t help. Starting the /require '/ line still doesn’t find Chef.

Hi, I think I have reproduced a similar issue with codeintel, rvm, and ruby gems. Do you mind filing an issue on our issue tracker with a link to this forum topic? https://github.com/Komodo/KomodoEdit/issues/

By doing so I can keep this issue on our radar for further investigation. We are a bit swamped at the moment. Thanks!

Hi, Mitchell. I’ve filed https://github.com/Komodo/KomodoEdit/issues/2715
Thanks for your help.
