Flatiron School has started its own taxi service, FlatironX, and we need to start developing the application's domain model!
Three basic models have already been created, Passenger
, Ride
, and Taxi
.
Just run rake db:migrate
and rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=test
to apply the
migrations to the development and test databases, respectively.
The next step is set up a has_many :through
relationship between
these three models so that we can keep track of who's driving who around.
It will work like this:
Taxi -< Rides >- Passengers
- A Taxi has many Rides
- A Taxi has many Passengers through Rides
- A Ride belongs to a Taxi and a Passenger
- A Passenger has many Rides
- A Passenger has many Taxis through Rides
Each table only has a primary key, so you'll need to write a migration to get the database ready to handle the "has_many :through" relationship and add the required columns to establish this relationship.
Check out the join table section in the Active Record Association Rails Guide.
Run the tests using the rspec
or learn test
command.
