A model files generator plugin from migrate file

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'models_generator', :groups => :development

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install models_generator

class CreateAllTables < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table(:employees) {|t| t.string :name}
    create_table(:users) {|t| t.string :name}
  end
end

$ rake db:migrate
$ rails g models  # NOT 'model' ! 
     create  app/models/employee.rb
     create  spec/models/employee_spec.rb
     create  app/models/user.rb 
     create  spec/models/user_spec.rb

You can configure the following default values by overriding these values using ModelsGenerator.configure method.

master_attrs	# %w[name label value] by default
master_eval	# '' by default. If have 'master_cache' gem, 'master_cache'

If the table have value of master_attrs, model file include master_eval. For instance:

class EmployeeType < ActiveRecord::Base
  master_cache
end

There's a handy generator that generates the default configuration file into config/initializers directory. Run the following generator command, then edit the generated file.

$ rails g models_generator:config
