Failed on remove sprockets/railtie from the project

[ismarsantos]

I was following this guide on how to remove some standard Rails components, when I removed the "sprockets/railtie" in favor of using "rails/webpacker" I get the following error message:

method_missing ': undefined method' assets' for Rails Application Configuration

Then I saw that the source of the error could be one of the dependencies on the gem "stimulus-rails" that is only compatible with asset pipeline, is there any way to use hotwire-rails only as a webpacker?

Same here, started a rails 6.1.3.1 / ruby 3 project without sprockets.

hotwired-rails will not install.

Same here. Was using the Webpacker asset pipeline from the start with my current project (Rails 6.0) and updated a gem today that uses Hotwire and boom, website broken.
Having to stick to the non-hotwire version of that other gem for now until this is fixed.

Issue seems to be in the Stimulus-rails subproject.
It was fixed in Turbo-rails in this PR hotwired/turbo-rails#17 but not fixed in Stimulus-rails.
Ill look to open either a PR or an issue in Stimulus-rails to fix.

[aldent95]

Never mind, PR already open to fix it in stimulus-rails hotwired/stimulus-rails#60

Still not working. Generated a new Rails 6.1.3.2/Ruby 3.0.1 app with -S flag. Added hotwire-rails gem and neither rails hotwire:install, rails turbo:install and rails stimulus:install works.

Using stimulus-rails 0.2.3
Using turbo-rails 0.5.9
Using hotwire-rails 0.1.3

I solved this by removing all of the config.assets settings (config.assets.debug, config.assets.compile, etc.) from my Rails application configuration.

It's fixed. Just successfully installed hotwire with rails hotwire:install in a new generated app with -S flag. Thanks!

Using stimulus-rails 0.2.4
Using turbo-rails 0.5.10
Using hotwire-rails 0.1.3
