Rails - Jul 2006 - New Generator: hasmanythrough

To the aide of anyone whose had to create new models, migrations and 
unit tests for the common many-to-many relationship, using "has_many 
:through" (that''s almost everyone).

I''ve created a new generator that generates two model classes, plus a 
many-to-many relationship class, e.g. User, Group, plus the Membership 
model between them. It also generates the migrations and a set of unit 
tests.

I''ve tried to write this all up here:
http://hasmanythrough.rubyforge.org/

Let me know if this is useful and/or what can be improved (and what 
extra unit tests can be added).

Cheers
Dr Nic

Another way to thing about this generator is: Instant CRUD.

It came about after DHH''s CRUD presentation at railsconf, and his 
answers at: http://www.loudthinking.com/arc/000593.html
