And Now…
For something completely different.
I got a new PowerBook. I also got bored. So I did some fun stuff with OmniGraffle, that designer’s plaything. Here’s a cheat sheet about Rails’ file structure. Here’s a cheat sheet about ActiveRecord relationships. Feel free to distribute, whatever, just keep the copyright notice and license link intact.
Enjoy!
Thanks. Good addition to RoR docu. Found a typo in activerecord_cheatsheet.pdf : shouldn’t ‘hatbm’ be ‘habtm’ (has and belongs to many)?
You’re right. I always do that. Duh. 🙂 Will fix soon! Thanks!
I could probably do the same in Visio on Windows, but it’d look all corporate business-like. Another reason for me to make the switch…
Thank you very much Amy. Your posts have helped me learn a lot about Ruby. I hope you continue to regularly update with your knowledge. You sure can present things in an understandable fashion.
Great sheet.
Are you using the version of Omni-Graffle that came with the Powerbook? If so, how is it? I heard that the bundled version isn’t the latest one.

Is there anything wrong with the Powerbook that’s making you bored? Or were they seperate trains of thought? 🙂
I’ve been looking into getting a Powerbook for some time now, and I’m waiting for Tiger to come out (should be soon?). What are your thuoghts/comments so far on the Powerbook? Also, what size?
My 15" PowerBook 1.67 ghz is indeed a nice machine. It has a weird little issue with the trackpad button making a loud noise on the right side, but not enough to have me send it back. It has nothing to do with me being bored, though. 🙂
And yeah, I used the included OmniGraffle. It’s newer than the one from my old PowerBook. I have yet to shell out the big bucks to get the new OG, but they’re coming out with 4.0 soon, I hear…
Love the documents — really clarified some thing for me.
On the ActiveRecord Relationships diagram there’s a slight typo… In the footer for the license it says slash7.org instead of .com … I only noticed because I tried to go to slash7.org to read some more of your great stuff!
Thanks for the great material!
Excellent!
I’m attempting my first "serious" app in Rails, and was puzzling over some ActiveRecord relationship stuff. Lo and behold, I found this blog this morning, and your cheat sheet cleared things up nicely.
Clear, concise, and useful. I wish I was like that! 🙂
Thanks Amy
