issue while installing rails_admin gem in ruby on rails
if we get the error while installing rails_admin for the error lib/rails_admin/config/fields/types.rb:11:in `load': Unsupported field datatype: binary (RuntimeError) we have to follow below code in config/initializers/rails_admin.rb since I don't display the binary field I put this monkey patch in my initializer: module RailsAdmin module Config module Fields module Types def self . load ( type ) return @@registry [ :text ] if ( type . to_sym == :binary ) @@registry [ type . to_sym ] or raise "Unsupported field datatype: #{ type } " end end end end end
