Naming Convemtion for Model?

Rails
1

Hi,
In My database there is a table called “categories”. Now what name
should I specify for my model as per ruby naming convention? Is it
“Category”???
Also is it possible to keep database table name singular instead of
plural?
Please tell me.
Thanx in advance.

The model would be called Category.
Then in the model you can set the name using:
set_table_name “category”

Or if you want this for all models, put the following line in your
environmen.rb:
ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names = false
