DRYing up YAML fixtures
// Rails Recipes explained how to DRY up the database configuration code. I applied the same idea to user fixtures, which worked while we used MySQL. Once on Postgres, "defaults" started throwing an error. The easiest solution was to make quentin's values the 'defaults'
1 2 quentin: &defaults 3 id: 1 4 login: quentin 5 email: quentin@example.com 6 site_id: 1 7 salt: 7e3041ebc2fc05a40c60028e2c4901a81035d3cd 8 crypted_password: 00742970dc9e6319f8019fd54864d3ea740f04b1 # test 9 created_at: <%= 5.days.ago.to_s :db %> 10 activated_at: <%= 5.days.ago.to_s :db %> # only if you're activating new signups 11 aaron: 12 id: 2 13 login: aaron 14 email: aaron@example.com 15 activation_code: aaronscode 16 site_id: 1 17 <<: *defaults 18 #etc...
