In Rails 2.2, if you include a belongs_to or references column in a call to the model generator, it will automatically add the belongs_to declaration to the model, as well as creating the foreign key column in the migration. Seems to me that it would be nice if this capability was a bit more consistent. I''ve written a path that extends the generator to pass has_many, has_one, and has_and_belongs_to_many "pseudo-attributes" through to the model, creating the appropriate association declarations without adding columns to the migrations or fixtures. Sample usage: script/generate model Supplier name:string products:has_many script/generate model User name:string account:has_one script/generate model Product name:string parts:has_and_belongs_to_many http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/1315-extend-model-generator-to-create-association-declarations for anyone who wants to have a look. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
