    text
    copied!<p>I have dashboards that are in a backbone.js app in a larger Rails app. In staging and production (on heroku) the dashboards work fine. </p> <p>However, in my local Pow dev environment I get the following error in the browser console when I try and view a specific dashboard:</p> <pre><code>Uncaught TypeError: Object #&lt;Object&gt; has no method 'merge' </code></pre> <p>After tracking that down a bit, here is what I came up with. The merge method being referred to in the error message is coming from the rendered /assets/templates/dashboard/details.js file. Here is the code with what the browser is calling the error at the start of line 5: helpers = this.merge...:</p> <pre><code>(function() { this.HandlebarsTemplates || (this.HandlebarsTemplates = {}); this.HandlebarsTemplates["dashboard/details"] = Handlebars.template(function (Handlebars,depth0,helpers,partials,data) { this.compilerInfo = [4,'&gt;= 1.0.0']; helpers = this.merge(helpers, Handlebars.helpers); data = data || {}; var buffer = "", stack1, functionType="function", escapeExpression=this.escapeExpression; buffer += "&lt;p&gt;\n &lt;b&gt;Name:&lt;/b&gt;\n &lt;span class='editable' data-attribute-name='name'&gt;"; if (stack1 = helpers.name) { stack1 = stack1.call(depth0, {hash:{},data:data}); } else { stack1 = depth0.name; stack1 = typeof stack1 === functionType ? stack1.apply(depth0) : stack1; } buffer += escapeExpression(stack1) + "&lt;/span&gt;\n&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;\n &lt;b&gt;Description:&lt;/b&gt;\n &lt;span class='editable' data-attribute-name='description'&gt;"; if (stack1 = helpers.description) { stack1 = stack1.call(depth0, {hash:{},data:data}); } else { stack1 = depth0.description; stack1 = typeof stack1 === functionType ? stack1.apply(depth0) : stack1; } buffer += escapeExpression(stack1) + "&lt;/span&gt;\n&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;\n &lt;button class='add_module'&gt;Add module&lt;/button&gt;\n&lt;/p&gt;\n"; return buffer; }); return this.HandlebarsTemplates["dashboard/details"]; }).call(this); </code></pre> <p>I think this is a Rails precompile or asset pipeline setup issue since it works fine in staging and production but fails in local development. </p> <p>It sucks having to push any changes to heroku to test them. Any suggestions for solving this are appreciated. </p>

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
