I have an interesting idea for segmenting an app into various rails engines for easier development from a massive dev team and to allow each engine to connect to its own database instance. With that concept in mind I have run into a few complications that I was hoping for some guidance on.
1. I would like each engine to define its database configuration, all the models in the engines inherit from a special base class that uses the establish connection to determine what database the models within that engine belong to. 2. I want to leave the migrations in the engines, I do not want to move them to the main app by running engine:install. I have read that this part is fairly easy to do with rails 3.2+, but please correct me if I am wrong. 3. I would like to run db:migrate from the main application, but modify the task so that it was intelligent enough to know what engine it was running the migrations for. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
