Question

So I am simply trying to run this code below with sunlight congress gem, but I seem to be doing something wrong. I am trying to include the gem in the project however something is off.

I am trying to implement this using RubyMine 7.1.2(if version matters), Ruby 2.2.2. sunlight congress can be found here: https://github.com/sunlightlabs/ruby-sunlight. Also, I am working on windows 8.1.

    require 'csv'

    require 'sunlight-congress'

    require 'erb'

    Sunlight::Congress.api_key = "e179a6973728c4dd3fb1204283aaccb5"

def neat_zip(zipcode)
  zipcode.to_s.rjust(5,"0")[0..4]
end
def legislator_by_zip(zipcode)
  Sunlight::Congress::Legislator.by_zipcode(zipcode)
end

def save_thank_you_letters(id,form_letter)
    Dir.mkdir("output") unless Dir.exists?("output")        
    filename = "output/thanks_#{id}.html"

    File.open(filename,'w') do |file|
      file.puts form_letter
      end

end

    puts "EventManager initialized."

    contents = CSV.open 'event_attendees.csv', headers: true, header_converters: :symbol

    template_letter = File.read "form_letter.erb"

    erb_template = ERB.new template_letter

    contents.each do |row|

      id = row[0]

      name = row[:first_name]

      zipcode = neat_zip(row[:zipcode])

      legislators = legislator_by_zip(zipcode)

      form_letter = erb_template.result(binding)

      save_thank_you_letters(id,form_letter)
    end

I am getting this error:

C:\Ruby22\bin\ruby.exe -e $stdout.sync=true;$stderr.sync=true;load($0=ARGV.shift)     C:/Ruby22/event_manager/sunlight-congress-master/lib/event_manager.rb

from -e:1:in `load'

Do i simply have the path wrong? gem isnt installed?
