rails duplicate record

To duplicate a record in Ruby on Rails, you can follow these steps:

  1. Find the record you want to duplicate using its unique identifier.
  2. Create a new instance of the record with the same attributes as the original record.
  3. Save the new instance to the database.

Here's an example of how this can be done in code:

# Step 1: Find the record you want to duplicate
original_record = YourModel.find(params[:id])

# Step 2: Create a new instance with the same attributes
new_record = original_record.dup

# Step 3: Save the new instance to the database
new_record.save

This code will duplicate the specified record in the database, creating a new record with the same attributes as the original one.
