Eway recurring issue with activemerchant gem in Rails

Question

I am trying to setup EWay payment integration with Active-merchant Gem in Rails application.

I setup successfully EWay but when tried to Recurring at that time got issue below:

undefined method `recurring' for #<ActiveMerchant::Billing::EwayGateway:0x000000051bb110>.

I tried a lot but still not found any proper solution.

Anyone have a better solution or experience with EWay recurring then please provide that will a lot of help.

Thanks

The eWAY gateway module in Active Merchant doesn't have a recurring function at this time, which is causing the error you see. In fact, it seems recurring functionality is being removed from the library on the whole:

There is too much variance between the recurring functionality provided by gateways for ActiveMerchant to do a good job of abstracting it. Thus this deprecates all such functionality with the intention of stripping it out completely at some future point.

If you do want to implement recurring payments with eWAY, your options are:

• Use Tokens to store cards with eWAY (which Active Merchant supports) and manage the recurring billing in your application.
• Skip using Active Merchant and implement eWAY's Recurring API directly
