Posted in Creating A Blog Post Model Discussion

PostgreSQL users: if you're having trouble with the db:migration for the model you need to create the database first. So before you've created the model (rails generate model BlogPost title:string body:text) you need to create the database. From the terminal, make sure you're in the right directory (~/blog) and type " rake db:create " without the quotes. This should create two databases: blog_development and blog_test. Once created, you can create your model as Chris shows and then run db:migrate to move it to the development database.

Overall epic course on the basics of HTML Collin. Thank you for taking the time to create these videos. I was always wondering about the
tag being used to break the controls to a new line. Never sat well but now I know why. Always learning something new.

Thanks Collin! Several years ago I built my own APIs using ASP.net. Recently, I got introduced to Ruby on Rails and regret not starting sooner - so much easier. This course gave me the Ruby basics in a straight-forward manner and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone interested in wanting to get started with Ruby. I'll be using this to assist me as I work with Ruby on Rails. My wife and I went on a walk last night and I described to her how I built Blue and Purple houses using this course. LOL, I'm hooked.

Collin, terrific course. I used it as a refresher and found it thorough, detailed, and frankly, fun. Appreciate your hard work. These videos take a long time to plan out. A++. Thank you.
I'll be using this as part of my Ruby on Rails training as I will be making use of the built-in API functions that interact with the Postgres database.
