Ruby-on-rails – rails, Heroku does not load my lib

require'MyUtilityClass' # wrong

require'my_utility_class' # correct

I am working in a new rails application, I am in RAILS_ROOT/lib A small utility class is created in. I use this class in a controller with require. This class is loaded correctly locally, but when I deploy the application on heroku, it crashes:

LoadError (no such file to load — MyUtilityClass)

Any ideas?

Update:

I found this problem. In my controller, I made a’require “MyUtilityClas”‘, which works fine locally. On heroku I need to do a’require’/ lib/my_utility_class.rb “‘. Hmm… I really don’t understand why…

Assuming you have named the file correctly, you need’my_file_to_require’ .

Require requires the file name, not the module/class name, so:

require'MyUtilityClass' # wrong

< p>It’s wrong but

require'my_utility_class' # correct

It is correct, again assuming you stick to the normal ruby/rails file naming convention.
