Is there a way to generate a rails scaffold without the views?

Question

Is there a way to generate a rails scaffold without the views, there has to be a better way then generating the scaffold and deleting the views and the view specs.

Answer 1

You can use rails g resource Foo bar:text

Answer 2

If you would like to have the controllers generated in the normal fashion, try this:

rails g resource Foo bar:text rails g scaffold_controller Foo --skip-template-engine 

The first command generates the model and the second one uses the generated model to create the controller which includes the RESTful actions.

--skip-template-engine causes the views to be omitted.
