Hey Rodrigo,
Have you looked inside db/seeds.rb? That file demonstrates seeding a City
model. Other things you can do, depending on what you need the data to look
like are simple things like:
states = %w[Alabama Alaska Arkansas]
I also think Ryan did a railscast on models that don''t exist in the
database, in case you need more model-like behavior than an array of strings
would give you.
Good luck!
