I've started looking into the uses of HABTM with linked tables. My greatest problem right now is visualizing and connecting some of my tables together with one another. Let me provide a brief example:
Again, using football mechanics for emphasis: Five groupings: Offense, Defense, Special Teams, Other, and Ratings Offense group contains 13 tables Defense group contains 13 tables Special Teams group contains 5 tables Other group contains 5 tables Ratings group contains 1 table Total Number of Tables: 37 Each table houses 120 teams Each table has the exact same team names What things I know I will be doing with the data? I will be showcasing "individual teams" and providing a layout of all their data for all 37 tables. I will be running cross-comparisons of one team's data with another team's opposing data. My Question: Should I use HABTM and linked tables with my project in this particular instance? If so, what advice can you give me on possible pitfalls and expectations down the road? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
