undefined method `find' for Wikipedia:Module (NoMethodError)

<main>': undefined methodfind' for Wikipedia:Module (NoMethodError)

I'm trying to duplicate the example in the docs, but get a no method error for find.

My code is simple.

@jeremysklarsky How were you able to fix this?

[harman28]

Figured it out, adding this for future reference if someone else comes searching.
You need to add gem 'wikipedia-client' to your Gemfile, and not gem 'wikipedia'. I was adding the latter, which is a completely different gem!

Hi @harman28 ,

This seems to be a problem in the example in the main page. Can you send a Pull Request fixing the example? I believe it could be just to README.textile line below:

require 'wikipedia' 

[harman28]

@pietromenna Not sure what you mean. The README already has this line, and it seems correct.

[pietromenna]

@harman28 You are right. The idea is to better document how to generate projects which uses this gem. I will figure out how to add this information. Thanks!

Can anyone help? I'm still getting this problem. I have
gem 'wikipedia-client'
in my gemfile and bundle finds the correct gem but when I try it in rails console, I still get the NoMethodError

strangely enough, running
require 'wikipedia'
makes it work so my solution for now is just putting that under the wikipedia-client line in the gem file.

Hi @analogdash ,

The way you are using is actually the correct way to use it. In order to install, you need to install wikipedia-clientgem. To do this, you added to your Gemfile and did a bundle install. The reference is here

Now, to consume you must follow what is in the examples. The correct way is require wikipedia. The example is here
