I have a Dashing dashboard and would like to use the Dashing EC2 Cloudfront widget within it. The gist for the widget is here <https://gist.github.com/jwalton/6614087> and Dashing is here <http://shopify.github.io/dashing/#widgets>

I have RVM manage my ruby and gems and have the aws-sdk gem as well as all other gems installed.

The #lib/dashing\_ec2.rb file is causing the error with the require aws-sdk

I am unsure what to do from here as I researched Backports and found nothing relatable.

This is the error from thin.log of Dashing:
