Description:
|
|
|
|
Stubs out a new resource including an empty model and controller suitable
|
|
|
|
for a restful, resource-oriented application. Pass the singular model name,
|
|
|
|
either CamelCased or under_scored, as the first argument, and an optional
|
|
|
|
list of attribute pairs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Attribute pairs are column_name:sql_type arguments specifying the
|
|
|
|
model's attributes. Timestamps are added by default, so you don't have to
|
|
|
|
specify them by hand as 'created_at:datetime updated_at:datetime'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You don't have to think up every attribute up front, but it helps to
|
|
|
|
sketch out a few so you can start working with the resource immediately.

This creates a model, controller, helper, tests and fixtures for all of them,
|
|
|
|
and the corresponding map.resources declaration in config/routes.rb

Unlike the scaffold generator, the resource generator does not create
|
|
|
|
views or add any methods to the generated controller.

Examples:
|
|
|
|
`./script/generate resource post` # no attributes
|
|
|
|
`./script/generate resource post title:string body:text published:boolean`
|
|
|
|
`./script/generate resource purchase order_id:integer amount:decimal`
