Additional Standalone ActiveRecord Example
In the Sunday section, we re-created the previous example application using ActiveRecord. This is very similar to the examples from Lecture 6 in the download section, except that this was written with an emphasis on test driven development.
It includes examples of:
- Migrations
- Simple Seed Data
- Fancy Finders
- Validations and Validation Testing
- One to Many Relationships
For the sake of time, there were no many to many relationships. Examples of m2m can be found in the download section.
Use rake -T to view the rake tasks. Use “rake db:migrate” to run the migrations, and “rake test” to run the tests.
Run “ruby section.rb” to run the demo code. Modify section.rb to play around with the finished results.
