snippet: saving data to a file to use as an input later
Posted by jacqui maher on March 04, 2008 at 01:41 PM
I find myself doing this often.
1 >> data = Model.find_all_by_something("Something")
2 # => [... results...]
3
4 >> File.open("#{RAILS_ROOT}/db/data/somethings.yml", "w") do |f|
5 > f.puts data.to_yaml
6 > end
