rails4 - Psych::BadAlias: Unknown alias: test
I don't believe you can alias test, development, or production as they are assigned based on the environment you boot in (if environment is production, the production settings will be applied). The issue is that if this were to work, cucumber would only be usable in the test environment.
I used something akin to the below:
base: &base
adapter: mysql2
host: address.com
encoding: utf8
adapter: mysql2
username: xxxxxx
password: xxxxxx
development:
database: db_dev
<<: *base
test:
database: db_test
<<: *base
production:
database: db_prod
<<: *base
cucumber:
database: cucumber
<<: *base
You can avoid this problem by passing aliases: true
argument to YAML.safe_load
method:
YAML.safe_load(File.read('config/database.yml'), aliases: true)
