Modelling: A table of domains
Greetings! I''m thinking of setting up a table of "domains", consisting of the core fields id, code, name, description, and type. Users is a domain, orders is a domain, recipes is a domain, etc. Domain attributes other than those covered by the core fields will go to, say, a user_other_fields table, recipe_other_fields, etc. I see the advantage of having all "things" in the database in one table. But there could be design disadvantages, and also Rails implementation disadvantages. Anyone has had experience in this area? Thank you for your thoughts. joshi -- Posted via ht...
