hi, i''m looking for suggestions how to setup and manage relatively small default data sets to be used as templates. lets say a user can have a default set of objects involving several models, and there might be several default sets to pick from (template objects). Would you suggest I create the ''templates'' in the db as specially named records, and copy them to the user, or create a method that just makes a series of create calls, or use an external file like yaml, or use xml, etc... ?? One approach I''m thinking of creating the sets of objects in the db via a data migration via yml files, and then cloning them from the db when the user picks one, but that means the templates would be spread across multiple yml files, one for each model. I''d prefer to keep them together. linoj --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
