Description:
|
|
The resource generator creates an empty model and controller for use in a REST-friendly, resource-oriented
|
|
application. Say you want to a resource called post. Normally, you could just call "script/generate model post" and
|
|
"script/generate controller posts". This generator basically just collapses these two generators into one step.
|
|
|
|
The generator takes the name of the model as its first argument. This model name is then pluralized to get the
|
|
controller name. So "resource post" will generate a Post model and a PostsController and will be intended
|
|
for URLs like /posts and /posts/45.
|
|
|
|
As additional parameters, the generator will take attribute pairs described by name and type. These attributes will
|
|
be used to prepopulate the migration to create the table for the model and give you a set of predefined fixture.
|
|
You don't have to think up all attributes up front, but it's a good idea of adding just the baseline of what's
|
|
needed to start really working with the resource.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
./script/generate resource post
|
|
./script/generate resource post title:string created_on:date body:text published:boolean
|
|
./script/generate resource purchase order_id:integer created_at:datetime amount:decimal |
