Rails 5 - Could not find generator 'rspec:install'
Turns out its an issue with spring
gem in my case. Restarting spring solved the problem.
First run bin/spring status
. If spring is running you will get something similar:
Spring is running:
8774 spring server | chessboard | started 14 mins ago
8808 spring app | chessboard 6.52.08 PM | started 12 mins ago | development mode
That means you have to stop spring by running:
bin/spring stop
Then start it again:
bin/spring server
Then run rails generate rspec:install
and it should work.
You may need to run bundle update
.
I faced the same problem today and as it turned out I forgot to add rspec gem in my Gemfile.
Adding following line in the Gemfile solved the issue.
gem "rspec-rails"
Needed to do the same for foundation (rails g foundation:install Y
)
gem 'foundation-rails'
Once added run bundle
to update dependencies.
No need to restart spring.
