Ruby on Rails Scaffolding : Two foreign keys for the same table

I'm a beginner to ruby on rails that's migrating an access database to RoR.

In the database there is a table named tasks and a table named users.

The table tasks has two foreign keys to the table users: task_created_by and task_finished_by.

I wanted to create everything using the scaffold tool. Is it possible?

Also, which name should I give to the two foreign keys?

Solution

  • Just found here Rails: Scaffold to automatically do one-to-many relationship that it isn't possible to scaffold relationships with the scaffold tool itself but there's a plugin called ActiveScaffold, Streamlined, Hobo and AutoAdmin that allows us to scaffold with associations.
