"inside" broken when running as an executable

[workergnome]

I could be missing something here, but

File example

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require "thor"

class Example < Thor
  include Thor::Actions


  desc "test", "example test script"
  def test
    file = "test.txt"
    inside("test_dir", :verbose => true) do
      run("touch #{file}")
      copy_file file, "test_2.txt"
    end
  end

  protected
  def self.source_root
      File.dirname(__FILE__)
  end

end

Example.start

Doesn't work. It returns:

$ ./example test
inside  test_dir
  run    touch test.txt from "./test_dir"
  Could not find "test.txt" in any of your source paths. Your current source paths are: 
.

File example.thor:

class Example < Thor
  include Thor::Actions

  desc "test", "example test script"
  def test
    file = "test.txt"
    inside("test_dir", :verbose => true) do
      run("touch #{file}")
      copy_file file, "test_2.txt"
    end
  end

  protected
  def self.source_root
      File.dirname(__FILE__)
  end

end

Works as expected.

I just came across a similar issue using template and seeing that this is still open I'll tack mine on.

My templates are found fine until I call template within an inside block. When shifting the path relatively, it works again:

def self.source_root
  File.expand_path(File.join('..', 'templates'), File.dirname(__FILE__))
end

# works:
template 'bar', 'bar'

# doesn’t work
empty_directory 'foo'
inside 'foo' do
  template 'bar', 'bar'
end

# works:
empty_directory 'foo'
inside 'foo' do
  template '../bar', 'bar'
end

Am I missing something? — Cheers!

Old issue, but it still persists. The following does not work:

# doesn’t work
empty_directory 'foo'
inside 'foo' do
  template 'my_tpl.erb', 'bar'
end

Could not find "my_tpl.erb" in any of your source paths. Your current source paths are: 
/home/username/apps/my_thor_project

I have the same issue. Any progress here?
