我正在创建一个带有三个辅助方法的Rails引擎。一个加载YAML配置文件，另一个确定YAML配置文件中是否存在选项，如果存在，则返回YAML配置选项的值。否则，它返回Rails应用程序名称和字符串':chat'：
def config_file
YAML.load_file(Rails.root.join('config', 'kouventa.yml'))
end
# This helper gets the name of the Rails app you're in.
# It also appends a :chat to it.
def app_name
yaml = config_file
name = Rails.application.class.to_s.split('::').first
if yaml[:app][:name] == true
yaml[:app][:name]
else
"#{name.uncapitalize}:chat"
end
end
问题是，如果我在我的ERB模板中包含<%= app_name %>，则会引发以下错误：no implicit conversion from nil to integer
以下是完整的跟踪：
