rails get list of tables
To get a list of tables in Ruby on Rails, you can use the ActiveRecord::Base.connection.tables method. Here are the steps to do so:
Inside your Rails application, open a Rails console by running the command
rails console
in your terminal.Once the console is open, you can use the ActiveRecord::Base.connection.tables method to retrieve a list of tables in your database. This method returns an array of strings, where each string represents a table name.
To get the list of tables, simply type
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.tables
in the console and press Enter.The console will output an array containing the names of all the tables in your database.
That's it! You have successfully obtained a list of tables in your Ruby on Rails application using the ActiveRecord::Base.connection.tables method.
Note: The above steps assume that you have correctly set up your Ruby on Rails application and have a working database connection.
