rails-erd: Unable to generate ERD

I got:

rake erd Loading application environment… Loading code in search of Active Record models… rake aborted! Active Record was not loaded. /Users/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/rails-erd-1.4.2/lib/rails_erd/tasks.rake:34:in block (2 levels) in <top (required)>' /Users/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:ineval’ /Users/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in `<main>’ Tasks: TOP => erd => erd:generate => erd:load_models

any idea?

@dishangyijiao I’m using a project with MongoDB, without ActiveRecord.

gem install ruby-graphviz

This did not work for me.

$ bundle exec erd
Loading application in 'overmediacast-api'...
Failed: NameError: uninitialized constant RailsERD::CLI::ActiveRecord

I got the same issue with rails 5.1.3 ruby 2.4.1.

I know it’s not supposed to for efficiency, but removing require: false in Gemfile solved it for me.

Hello, where did you remove require: false in Gemfile?
