I can not add gem best_in_place to my table.

class_datatable.rb:

  def data
    class.map do |record|
      [
        best_in_place(record, :name),
        best_in_place(record, :short_name)
      ]
    end
  end

There is an error: NoMethodError (undefined method `best_in_place’ for ClassDatatable:0xa9283a44)

My gem file:

Bundle install is done!

If I do like this on the page:

<% Class.all.each do |record| %>
  <%= best_in_place(record, :name) %>
<% end %>

That works.
However, the method does not work “def data”

  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER

    Understood! It was necessary to add delegate best_in_place section at the beginning of the file class_datatable.rb


  2. For anyone struggling to find the right way to delegate, this is how it is done:

    class MyCustomDatatable < AjaxDatatablesRails::Base
      # either define them one-by-one
      def_delegator :@view, :link_to
      def_delegator :@view, :h
      def_delegator :@view, :mail_to
    
      # or define them in one pass
      def_delegators :@view, :link_to, :h, :mailto, :edit_resource_path, :other_method
    
      # now, you'll have these methods available to be used anywhere
      # example: mapping the 2d jsonified array returned.
      def data
        records.map do |record|
          [
            link_to(record.fname, edit_resource_path(record)),
            mail_to(record.email),
            # other attributes
          ]
        end
      end
    end
