impressionist does not log the Rails 4 session value into session_hash

impressionist(@object, nil, unique: [:session_hash])

Calling impressionist() inserts the record first time, later on every request it says Record Already Exist because it always find Nil value for session_hash. it looks it does not log the rails-4 session value into "session_hash".

I'm using Rails 4.1.6, ruby 2.1.3p242 and impressionist (1.5.1)

Any help on this ?

I think the issue you're describing is the same as mine and I found the solution under this open issue on the git repo.

https://github.com/charlotte-ruby/impressionist/issues/177

You have to override the session hash method for your project to initialise the session before making a request for the id. 

ImpressionistController::InstanceMethods.class_eval do 
  def session_hash
    session[:init] = true
    request.session.id
  end
end

I ran into the same issue. I ended up using a conditional statement checking whether the session_hash exists.

if session_hash.blank?
  impressionist(@object)
else
  impressionist(@object, nil, unique: [:session_hash])
end
