ActiveRecord model relationship with YAML file

Hi,

I have an ActiveRecord model Group and a YAML table stored in config/users.yaml just like:

    - {login: titi, password: 123456, group_id: 2}     - {login: toto, password: 987654, group_id: 7}

And I would like to link them by a sexy way. Can you help me?

I would be happy if I can do this (as example): User.first.group.id # => 2

Many thanks for any help!

This will probably be easier in Rails 3, but not impossible in Rails 2. Which are you using?

Best,

Thank for your quick answer. I'm using Rails 3 :stuck_out_tongue:

Hmm, http://github.com/zilkey/active_hash looks very cool. And Rails 3 ready. But it do not allow habtm relations :s

You could run a rake task to put the data in the database, unless there is a good reason why you need it in a yaml file.
