Is it possible to create controllers, models and view from the existing database?
I could not find the command over googling.
Here i am talking about Reverse Engineering
You have to create simple model for every table with relations, and then you can
[rails3] > rails generate scaffold_controller Club name:string exclusive:boolean
create app/controllers/clubs_controller.rb
invoke erb
create app/views/clubs
create app/views/clubs/index.html.erb
create app/views/clubs/edit.html.erb
create app/views/clubs/show.html.erb
create app/views/clubs/new.html.erb
create app/views/clubs/_form.html.erb
create app/views/layouts/clubs.html.erb
invoke test_unit
create test/functional/clubs_controller_test.rb
Alternatively you can try active_admin gem
ActiveAdmin - https://github.com/gregbell/active_admin
rails generate active_admin:resource [MyModelName]
RailsAdmin is also good enough https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin
You should specify at least 2 rules for your model if it doesn't use rails conventions. Example
class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
self.table_name "tbl_articles"
self.primary_key "art_id"
end
