This project is meant to be a solid introduction to Models and Migrations in Ruby on Rails. There are no views, controllers, or routes in this project. But you can use the rails console to play with model creation and investigate associations.

• Ruby on Rails 6

• Clone repo and run bundle install.

I decided to implement specs early on during the creation of each Model.

• Run rails test:models in the console to verify that tests pass.

• The site can have users.
• Users can make posts.
• Users can make comments.
• Posts can be commented on.
• Comments cannot be further commented on (no nested comments / 1-level)

Before beginning the project, I planned the models:

• has_many :posts
  • associated posts must be destroyed when a user is destroyed
• has_many :comments
  • associated comments must be destroyed when a user is destroyed
• has a username
  • represented by a string
  • must be present
  • must be no more than 50 chars
  • must be unique (case insensitive)
• has an email
  • represented by a string
  • must be present
  • must be no more than 255 chars
  • must be unique (case insensitive)
  • must comply valid email format

• belongs_to :user
• has_many: comments
  • associated comments must be destroyed when a post is destroyed
• has a title
  • represented by a string
  • must be present
  • must not be more than 255 chars
  • must be unique (case insensitive)
• has body
  • represented by text
  • must be present
• has user_id
  • represented by integer
  • must be present

• belongs_to :user
• belongs_to :post
• has content
  • represented by text
  • must be present
• has user_id
  • represented by integer
  • must be present
• has post_id
  • represented by integer
  • must be present
