Heroku deploy issue about administrate-field-ckeditor HOT 2 CLOSED

UPDATE: skip to UPDATE 2

It seems ckeditor needs ApplicationController to render layout.
Workaround is to create application controller that inherits from base, as in

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
end

and create separate controller for api use, as in

class ApiController < ActionController::API
end

and use it for api controllers.
I suppose it's more of a ckeditor in general issue than of this gem.

UPDATE 2:
Better workaround

ckeditor provides way to set controller to use, so in case of using api only mode and administrate gem you can create config/initializers/ckeditor.rb with

Ckeditor.setup do |config|
  config.parent_controller = "Admin::ApplicationController"
end

This way you can keep your api controllers intact.
