How to create model in Rails?

Rails uses rake command line tool for creation of models. The following example does just that

> rails generate model Product title:string description:text

This command line will generate migration file with the following Rails code

class CreateProducts < ActiveRecord::Migration
 def change
  create_table :products do |t|
  t.string :title, :null => false
  t.string :description
  t.timestamps null: false
 end
end

You can provision this model to your RDBMs via the following Rake command line

> rake db:migrate
