Rails - Oct 2012 - generate 10 UUID records and save it it database in rails

I need to create certain number of  UUId records(based on the selection
of drop down) and save it in the database. Now I am generating only one
unique id. Can this be done in the model in this way. Or do I need to
write a helper file for that??

 def generate_unique_token=(value)    self.secret 
Base64.encode64(UUIDTools::UUID.random_create)[0..8] end

In my controller...........

def create
     @secretcode= Secretcode.new(params[:secretcode])
     @user= User.new(params[:user])
     @secretcode.user_id=@user
@secretcode.generate_unique_token=params[:secretcode][:secret]
     if @secretcode.valid?
        @secretcode.save
        redirect_to secretcodes_path
     else
       render ''new''
     end   end

In my view page
> <%=form_for(@secretcode) do |f|%> <%= f.select(:secret,
> options_for_select([[''1'', 1], [''10'',
10], [''20'',
> 20],[''50'',50],[''100'',100]])) %>
<%= render ''layouts/error'' %>
> <%=f.label :secret%> <%= f.hidden_field :user %> <%=f.submit
> :generate%> <%end%>

before_save :guarantee_uuid!

private
def uuid
  if !uuid_field?
    write_attribute :uuid_field, # UUID CODE HERE
  end
end

That is how I would personally do it, put it all in a method and
trigger it with before_save, this also gives you the option to
generate the UUID and modify/add it in other places too.
