Rails Application With Our Own Database



If we are working with rails version 2.X.X , the rails framework automatically create an application with sqlite as a default database. If we want to create the rails application with our selected database by using the following command..


Syntax : rails -d database_name app_name


Example :


rails -d mysql depot (OR)  rails shopping_cart -database=mysql


Here, depot and shopping_cart are the application names which we are going to create for rails.
