Script/console doesn't load model

Rails
1

I’m trying to test functions in my models using the console.

Should the code be in the model? I think so.
I’m encapsulating
find( … :conditions=> …

However these functions aren’t available when I run the console.

Am I missing something or is this ‘by design’?

Hi, you should be invoking the find method as follows:

class_name.method_name

e.g. Product.find( :all )

Good luck,

That IS what I was typing.

In fact the console has a this neat trick whereby if you type the name
of
the class and a tab it will show the methods, or class_name.find
and it
will show you all the find methods for that class.

I do this I I don’t see the methods I have defined in the model.

a = Page.find_in

and I don’t see the “find_in_book” that I defined in the model.

All the profit from our victory.
You talk of freedom, starving children poor.
Are you deaf when you hear the season’s call?
Were you there to watch the earth be scorched?
Did you stand beside the spectral torch?
Know the leaves of sorrow turned their face,
Scattered on the ashes of disgrace.

Did you restart ./script/console ?

Yes.
