Ruby on Rails Getting started with Ruby on Rails Create a new Rails app with your choice of database and including the RSpec Testing Tool
Example
Rails uses sqlite3 as the default database, but you can generate a new rails application with a database of your choice. Just add the -d option followed by the name of the database.
$ rails new MyApp -T -d postgresql
This is a (non-exhaustive) list of available database options:
- mysql
- oracle
- postgresql
- sqlite3
- frontbase
- ibm_db
- sqlserver
- jdbcmysql
- jdbcsqlite3
- jdbcpostgresql
- jdbc
The -T command indicate to skip the installation of minitest. To install an alternative test suite like RSpec, edit the Gemfile and add
group :development, :test do
gem 'rspec-rails',
end
Then launch the following command from the console:
rails generate rspec:install
