I’m not sure what you’re really asking, but maybe this will help:

Terminal

rails g scaffold picture name:string mime_type:string url:string
rake db:migrate
rails s (or ./script/server for Rails < 3.0)

THE CODE…

picture.rb

class Picture < ActiveRecord::Base
end

pictures_controller.rb

GET /pictures/1

GET /pictures/1.xml

def show
@picture = Picture.find(params[:id])

respond_to do |format|
  format.html # show.html.erb
  format.xml  { render :xml => @picture }
end

end

Terminal (again)

$ curl http://localhost:3000/pictures/1.xml
