Photo site creation…

[code]
rails Photos
cd Photos
script/generate model Photo
script/generate model Film
script/generate controller admin/film new create edit update delete show index
script/generate controller admin/photo new create edit update delete show index

mysql -u root
create database photos_dev;
create database photos_test;
grant all on photos_test.* to ‘photos’@’localhost’ identified by ‘**********’;
grant all on photos_dev.* to ‘photos’@’localhost’ identified by ‘**********’;
[/code]

edit config/database.yml to contain the new login and password details.
Edit migration files (consider making filmtype another table rather than a string)
[code]
create_table :photos do |t|
t.column :title, :string
t.column :keywords, :string
t.column :date, :datetime
t.column :film_id, :integer, :null => false

[code]
create_table :films do |t|
t.column :name, :string
t.column :date, :datetime
t.column :enddate, :datetime
t.column :filmtype, :string
