I'm just starting out learning. So far, all I've done is little test apps starting from scratch -- ie, ones in which rails creates an empty database, then I make up some classes and views and controllers and such. Nice system. But what if I have an SQlite database file created elsewhere: (how) can I import this into ruby "easily"? I have not tried yet because it just occurred to me that there is an id field/column in the "native" rails databases. Could I add such a column and then just copy the db file straight into db/development.sqlite?
I am guessing the easiest way might be to just create an empty db with all the necessary tables and columns and then write a script to copy the relevant data in from the existing external db. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
