Enumeration API change in r2472 - undefined method 'get_values'

Added by Eric Davis about 15 years ago

An API change was recently commited to trunk that will affect any plugin using Activities, Priorities, or Document Categories. The error you might see is undefined method 'get_values'. In r2472 Enumeration#get_values and Enumeration#default was removed in favor of using named scopes. If your plugin is following trunk the upgrade should be easy.

Change:

Enumeration::get_values('ACTI')

To:

Enumeration.activities

If you have any questions or need any help, open a new forum topic or post a comment here.

... to get the stuff to do plugin running

edit in vendor/plugins/stuff_to_do/app/models/next_issue_filter.rb

change line 8 to

self.priorities = Enumeration.priorities

Thanks, I'll be updating all my plugins soon to handle this change.

Instead of just changing get_values('IPRI') to priorities, I ended up implementing a workaround in my Stuff To Do plugin. It should detect which Enumeration API to use automatically.

i would say a func like this should be implemented in the redmine core

on one hand i can understand why not
on the other it is bad to change the api calls because it breaks heaps of plugins....

I disagree, if the core had to manage workarounds for third party code it would become unmaintainable. Until Redmine has an public/private API spec (like Merb) the burden has to go on the plugin developers for staying up to date (saying this as a plugin developer myself).

It was changed in trunk, which is where things are allowed to break. I made this forum post to let any plugin developers know of the API change so they can work around it like I did.

Actually there is a new change in the API for the upcoming 0.9 release. Any hints on how to fixe that. I am not at all a RoR developer but I am willing to help on fixing the plugins if I someone can provide me any hints

RE: Enumeration API change in r2472 - undefined method 'get_values' - Added by Damien Cirotteau about 14 years ago

I have fixed it for the stuff_to_do plugin :

I have changed

Enumeration.priorities

in
 IssuePriority.all

Eric do you accept patches to your plugins ?

RE: Enumeration API change in r2472 - undefined method 'get_values' - Added by Damien Cirotteau about 14 years ago

Here is the full patch. It is there only if it can help other. I will submitt it to your redmine Eric.

Hi,

I have this problem on Google Docs Plugin.
Enumeration.get_values('DCAT') should be changed to what?

Thanks in advance,
Ricardo Machado
