Unable to record cassettes

[heaths]

I'm working on a change to add state_reason (see octokit/octokit.net#2665) but unable to record a few cassettes - replacing one (I deleted it first) and two new ones. Initially I tried with Ruby 3.1 and, failing that, tried with Ruby 2.7 (after some initial issues getting rbenv install) but the problem is the same. The bundle installed correctly, but I keep getting errors like:

     1.1) Failure/Error: super

Cassettes do record, but they have only a single entry that is the initial repo creation where I'm getting a 201 Created. I'm not sure whether the NoMethodError is masking an actual issue or not, but I do see repos getting created. It's not documented, but I eventually figured out which scopes I need to grant (I'd be happy to update the CONTRIBUTING.md if that's cool). It's the same token I use for the GitHub CLI which definitely works with issues.

Anyone else experience this problem or, better, know how to resolve it?

In trying to do this myself, I do think that there is an issue where this warning is obscuring the real problem.

What I did was set my token and attempt to run a new test I wrote

Failures:

  1) Octokit::Client::Environments.environments lists environments
     Failure/Error: super
     
     NoMethodError:
       undefined method `octokit_warn' for Octokit:Module

     # ./spec/octokit/client/environments_spec.rb:16:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'

When I comment out the super I get

     Failure/Error: raise error

Following up on this now that I got everything working

OCTOKIT_TEST_GITHUB_LOGIN=jer-k
OCTOKIT_TEST_GITHUB_TOKEN=<insert token>
OCTOKIT_TEST_GITHUB_REPOSITORY=octokit.rb
OCTOKIT_TEST_GITHUB_ORGANIZATION=jer-k

I forked octokit.rb and used it for my tests. The issue I was running into initially was that I didn't set OCTOKIT_TEST_GITHUB_ORGANIZATION so it was attempting to create a repository for the stubbed organization api-playground. Once I set OCTOKIT_TEST_GITHUB_ORGANIZATION=jer-k then everything started working.

Couple pieces to a better solution would be

1. The octokit_warn not hiding the real error
2. Better instructions on what needs to be set when interacting with a Repository
