Topics Covered: Seeding Data, Paginations
Adding users and posts to our website in the terminal, or individually from our website, can be pretty laborious. A much better way to pre-populate the data that we want to exist in production for our site is to use the seeds.rb
file. Add some users and posts to Meowbook in the db/seeds.rb
file of Meowbook. To add the new data, simply run with rake db:seed
.
For this exercise, you need to implement the Pagination functionlity for your Kitty's purrings. Go ahead and add a Search bar on your /posts
URL so that a Kitty can search through her posts. Hint: Follow the Pagination tutorial from lecture this afternoon and/or refer to Micah's code along on Github. Make sure to use the Kaminari gem. :)
Please take some time to check in with Micah and the TA's throughout the evening today. Let's keep going!!
