Emcee Railtie cant Modify frozen Array

[lomefin]

I'm installing a Rails project from scratch using Bower+Emcee, following this tutorial: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26884022/google-polymer-with-rails-4

When I get to step 3 or 4

 rails g bower_rails:initialize
 rails g emcee:install

I get this error

/home/lluarteg/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.2@project2/bundler/gems/emcee-a47ed9852328/lib/emcee/railtie.rb:12:in `unshift': can't modify frozen Array (RuntimeError)

from /home/lluarteg/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.2@project2/gems/railties-4.2.1/lib/rails/initializable.rb:30:in `instance_exec'

I'm using Rails 4.2.1 and Ruby 2.2.2

This is how my Gemfile looks

ruby "2.2.2"

@lomefin try add to your gem file gem "sprockets", "< 3.0.0"

[ahuth]

Thank you @lomefin for the report, and thanks @brovikov for a potential work-around. This project is no longer under development, so hopefully the work-around works for you, or hopefully you can find something else that suites your needs.

[dsaronin]

The suggested fix-around worked. But, it took sprockets from v3.1.0 down to 2.12.3. I question whether that is the best, long-term fix for this issue.

[ahuth]

That's definitely not a good long-term fix for the issue. Unfortunately, this project is no longer under development. Sorry!

[alexvbush]

@brovikov it worked. thx.

@ahuth any chance we can find someone to maintain it? I myself can not do because I'm working with iOS and Rails APIs more than with Rails front end. But I certainly would be happy to use emcee from time to time for my front end projects.

[alexvbush]

@ahuth maybe we can reach out to webcomponents and polymer communities?

[ahuth]

Hey, @alexvbush. Somebody can certainly fork the repo. I don't want to put in the time to find someone to maintain it, though. Sorry!
