Class loader Issue MaintenanceTasks::CsvCollectionBuilder

[orbanbotond]

As I turn on the eager loader and start the rails console I receive this error:

be rails c             7s arm64 2.7.3p183
/Users/orbanbotond/.frum/versions/2.7.3/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/maintenance_tasks-1.10.1/app/models/maintenance_tasks/batch_csv_collection_builder.rb:9:in `<module:MaintenanceTasks>': uninitialized constant MaintenanceTasks::CsvCollectionBuilder
Did you mean?  MaintenanceTasks::NoCollectionBuilder
               MaintenanceTasks::BatchCSVCollectionBuilder
               MaintenanceTasks::CSVCollectionBuilder (NameError)

This is my ruby version:

ruby -v                7s arm64 2.7.3p183
ruby 2.7.3p183 (2021-04-05 revision 6847ee089d) [arm64-darwin20]

Yeah we've noticed in #620 and dropped support for it for v2.0.0.
I think you could work around that issue, but I can't reproduce it myself. I've created a rails 6.1.6 app, installed active storage, installed the gem, set config.autoloader = :classic and in development set config.eager_load = true, but when I start the console it doesn't raise the issue.

I've also tried adding an inflection in config/initializers/inflections.rb:

ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections(:en) do |inflect|
  inflect.acronym "CSV"
end

Can you give me repro steps? From there we should be able to require the file and avoid the eager-loading issue.

Here are some reproduction steps with rails 6.1.7, but under Zeitwerk:

rails new testapp --skip-webpack-install --skip-javascript

Flip config.eager_load to true in config/environments/development.rb.

Then edit config/initializers/inflections.rb to have:

ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections do |inflect|
  inflect.acronym 'CSV'
end

And finally add gem 'maintenance_tasks' to Gemfile.

When you try to launch a console, it'll crash.

This is due to the fact that Rails doesn't isolate inflections to the main application, thus requiring something like:

Rails.autoloaders.each do |autoloader|
  autoloader.inflector.inflect(
    'batch_csv_collection_builder' => 'BatchCsvCollectionBuilder',
    'csv_collection_builder' => 'CsvCollectionBuilder',
  )
end

Cheers @drcapulet. For anyone curious about the zeitwerk inflections mentioned in #642 (comment)

• 📖 Check out https://guides.rubyonrails.org/autoloading_and_reloading_constants.html#customizing-inflections
• Add bin/rails zeitwerk:check to your CI build, this will catch any autoload errors that would otherwise show up in eager_load https://guides.rubyonrails.org/autoloading_and_reloading_constants.html#manual-testing
