Usage outside rails - Sinatra/ActiveRecord

[ktaragorn]

I copied the auto_annotate_models.rake file from a rails project, over to our sinatra app, set the model_dir in it to app/rds_models and tried annotate and annotate --model-dir app/rds_models. Both of these led to

I, [2014-07-10T15:18:34.444536 #5473]  INFO -- : development

I had to do model_dir=app/rds_models rake annotate_models to finally get it working. This is from going through the code, and seeing the ENV[] values being used to initialize the options.

I suspect I'm having the same problem. When I run annotate --model-dir=lib/models in a sinatra app, I get:

.../annotate-2.6.5/lib/annotate.rb:142:in `block in fallback': undefined method `blank?' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
