Question

I’m using this command:

rails generate model DayOfMonth day:integer

Rails generated the model “DayOfMonth” and the table “day_of_months”.

I want it to create the table “days_of_month” instead.

I know this has something to do with the Inflector class and the inflector.rb in initializers folder.

But I don’t understand how to get this to work.

I’m using Rails 3.

Could someone help me out here or point me to a tutorial for this?

Thanks

Answer 1

You could just edit the migration and then add

Rails 3.2+ / 4+

class DayOfMonth < ActiveRecord::Base
   self.table_name = "days_of_month"
end

Rails 3

class DayOfMonth < ActiveRecord::Base
  set_table_name "days_of_month"
end
