I am using SpaceVim as Ruby on Rails IDE and installed the tpope/vim-rails plugin. However, the other commands like :Econtroller, :Emodel, :find, commands are working just fine but the gf command provided by this plugin is not working in SpaceVim.

It shows me with an error message.

# for partial
Can't find file "users/edit_form" in path

# with association
User has_many :notes
Can't find file "notes" in path

Also I noticed that for

has_one :user,
belongs_to :user

gf works fine.

But don't work for

has_many :users

For partial if I change

<%= render partial: 'partial_name' %>

<%= render partial: '_partial_name' %>

then gf works fine.

What does `:map gf` say? Does it show any mappings? – filbranden Aug 07 '19 at 02:34
Output of :map gf: **n gf * gf**, **n g [G]** – Bipin Manandhar Aug 07 '19 at 04:01

Thank you @filbranden for your suggestion. – Bipin Manandhar Aug 08 '19 at 17:27
Add the path where your files are locate using `set path+=/ur/file/path`. – dlmeetei Aug 09 '19 at 13:23
@dlmeetei, are you telling me to set the path to root directory of the project or setting the PATH for individual files? __set path+=/home/usr/.../project_root/app/views/view_dir/__ didn't work for me. – Bipin Manandhar Aug 11 '19 at 13:13
@BipinManandhar, Assuming the file path you want to do `gf` is in the hierarchy of root dir, then you can do `set path+=**`, then try :) – dlmeetei Aug 12 '19 at 06:41
:!pwd show me the root directory of my project. And per your suggestion **set path+=\*\*** didn't work either. Thank you for your answer @dlmeetei – Bipin Manandhar Aug 12 '19 at 14:32
