Trying to load a db table with sample data...
This seems like a very simple and straitforward task.
require 'rubygems' require 'active_record'
class Rich < ActiveRecord::Base end
class Corp < ActiveRecord::Base end
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection( :adapter => "mysql", :host => "localhost", :username => "root", :password => "", :database => "foo_development" )
@x = Rich.find(:all)
@x.each { >a | n = Corp.new n["name"] = a["name"] n["city"] = a["city"] n["state"] = a["state"] n["zip"] = a["zip"]
n.save; }
# Just before executing the n.save line... (rdb:1) p n #<Corp:0x2a0bbe4 @attributes={"city"=>"San Jose", "name"=>"Wire Inc", "status"=>nil, "zip"=>"95131-1873", "address2"=>nil, "cf"=>nil, "notes"=>nil, "market"=>nil, "isp"=>nil, "domain_name"=>nil, "fax"=>nil, "phone"=>nil, "circuit_type"=>nil, "address"=>nil, "source"=>nil, "state"=>"CA"}, @new_record=true> (rdb:1) n
