Hi gang,
Provided all the info below that i can think of. I am running instant
rails on WinXP, but i dont see how that is an issue, I have been
running rake commands for months with no issue. Also, I am running the
rake command out of the root of the app e.g. \rails_apps\puget
Thanx for your help.
the file is named sample_data.rake
it is saved in \railsapps\puget\lib\tasks
sample data is saved in \railsapps\puget\lib\tasks\sample_data
command used for rake
rake db:sample_data:load
error message
rake aborted
uninitialized constant ActiveRecord
pasted below sample_data.rake
Provide tasks to load and delete sample user data.
require ‘active_record/fixtures’
namespace :db do
DATA_DIRECTORY = “#{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/tasks/sample_data”
namespace :sample_data do
TABLES = %w(users specs faqs)
MIN_USER_ID = 1000 # Starting user id for the sample data
desc "Load sample data"
task :load => :environment do |t|
class_name = nil # Use nil to get Rails to figure out the
class.
TABLES.each do |table_name|
fixture = Fixtures.new(ActiveRecord::Base.connection,
table_name, class_name,
File.join(DATA_DIRECTORY,
table_name.to_s))
fixture.insert_fixtures
puts “Loaded data from #{table}.yml”
end
end
desc "Remove sample data"
task :delete => :environment do |t|
User.delete_all("id >= #{MIN_USER_ID}")
Spec.delete_all("user_id >= #{MIN_USER_ID}")
Faq.delete_all( "user_id >= #{MIN_USER_ID}")
end
end
end
