#<NoMethodError: undefined method `table' for #<PdfMethods:0x0000023fc7b70648>>

Question

I have been trying to create a table in a pdf i am generating using Prawn gem in rails. I have been following some tutorial but when I try adding the table to the pdf I am getting the error '#<NoMethodError: undefined method `table' for #PdfMethods:0x0000023fc7b70648>'. Here is my code:

require "prawn"
class PdfMethods < Prawn::Document
    def initialize
        super
        pdf_text
        statement_accounts
    end

    def pdf_text
        text "Order goes here", size: 40, style: :bold
    end

    def statement_accounts
        move_down 20
        table_data = Array.new
        table_data << [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
        table(table_data)
    end
end

I have already installed both the prawn and prawn-table gems. Any help will be appreciated.

For many years (like since 1.2, so 7, 8 years?), table support has been in another gem called prawn-table, you'll need to have that in your project too, then Prawn::Document supports the table method. Maybe get a newer tutorial? ;)
