Rails - Apr 2007 - PluginAWeek: fixture_references - Clean up your fixtures

Hey all,

Just announcing a new plugin...

fixture_references - Adds support for referencing external fixtures
(by name) from within a fixture definition.

Example:

departments.yml:
<%
fixtures :employees
id = 0
%>

packaging:
  id: <%= id += 1 %>
  name: Packaging
  manager_id: <%= employees(:bob)[''id''] %>
