hi i m new to rails i need to know the => which is the best way to create
Database table in Rails?
1) *rails generate model User name:string email:string*
this will create a migration file with something like this
class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
create_table :users do |t|
t.string :name # *see here name column is already made becoz we have
passed a parameters*
t.string :email # *same as above*
t.timestamps
end
endend
this is one method
2) *rails generate model Page*
this will create a empty migration file something like this
class CreatePages < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
create_table :users do |t|
===>> *now we can add here like t.string "name" to create column
manually* ========>>>>>
t.timestamps
end
endend
So which is the good way to do above things example 1 or example 2?
Please tell.
and if i have to write a drop_table method in migration, can i write in the
way which i showed below
class CreateSubjects < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
create_table :subjects do |t|
t.string "name"
t.timestamps
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :subjects
end
end
So again same question *which is the good way to do above things example 1
( model with parameter ) or example 2 ( model without parameter )?*
Thanks for Taking Time to Read.
