Ruby on Rails Getting started with Ruby on Rails Generate a Resource with Scaffolds
Example
From guides.rubyonrails.org:
Instead of generating a model directly . . . let's set up a scaffold. A scaffold in Rails is a full set of model, database migration for that model, controller to manipulate it, views to view and manipulate the data, and a test suite for each of the above.
Here's an example of scaffolding a resource called Task with a string name and a text description:
rails generate scaffold Task name:string description:text
This will generate the following files:
Controller: app/controllers/tasks_controller.rb
Test: test/models/task_test.rb
test/controllers/tasks_controller_test.rb
Routes: resources :tasks added in routes.rb
Views: app/views/tasks
app/views/tasks/index.html.erb
app/views/tasks/edit.html.erb
app/views/tasks/show.html.erb
app/views/tasks/new.html.erb
app/views/tasks/_form.html.erb
Helper: app/helpers/tasks_helper.rb
JS: app/assets/javascripts/tasks.coffee
CSS: app/assets/stylesheets/tasks.scss
app/assets/stylesheets/scaffolds.scss
example to delete files generated by scaffold for the resource called Task
rails destroy scaffold Task
