method missing on notifier

gistfile1.rb

class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base
  def method_missing(method_name, *args, &block)
    puts method_name
    body = "Method name - #{method_name} \n"
    mail(:to => Notifier.emergency, :subject => "Notifier is missing a called method", :body => body)
    #I've tried putting in super and not super here
  end
  def respond_to?(method_name, include_private = false)
    true
  end
end

Both of these errors happen, although ideally i'd like .deliver to work

Try

def self.method_missing
# ...
end

and

def self.respond_to?
# ...
end
instead. Otherwise it's applied on the instances of class Notifier, not the class itself

My previous suggestion wouldn't probably work out of box.

The solution could be leaving your current code and defining:

def self.respond_to?(method)
  return true if method == :make_pizza
  super
end
