Pass the model name, either CamelCased or + under_scored, and an optional list of attribute pairs as arguments. + + Attribute pairs are field: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 model immediately. + + This generator invokes your configured ORM and test framework, which + defaults to ActiveRecord and TestUnit. + + Finally, if --parent option is given, it's used as superclass of the + created model. This allows you create Single Table Inheritance models. + +Examples: + `./script/generate model account` + + For ActiveRecord and TestUnit it creates: + + Model: app/models/account.rb + Test: test/unit/account_test.rb + Fixtures: test/fixtures/accounts.yml + Migration: db/migrate/XXX_add_accounts.rb + + `./script/generate model post title:string body:text published:boolean` + + Creates a Post model with a string title, text body, and published flag. |
