I decided I wanted all 356 rows of a table dumped to a fixture, but
CSV was a disaster. So:
require 'yaml' js = Journal.find_all File.open ('dump.yml', "w") do |f| js.each do |j| f.print YAML.dump ({"j_#{j.id}" => j.attributes}) end end |
(I actually did it from script/console.) The only caveat is I got a
line of “–” between each entry that I had to delete.
