Rails: running a particular migration

This is an old Stackoverflow question - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/753919/run-a-single-migration-file


If the migration file is:
--
db/migrate/20141211192127_add_col1_to_table1.rb

class AddCol1ToTable1 < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    add_column :table1, :col1, :boolean
  end
end
--

Then, we have to do the following in Rails console:

> require Rails.root + "db/migrate/20141211192127_add_col1_to_table1.rb"

> AddCol1ToTable1.new.migrate(:up)

Ruby: detect

From
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2986852/ruby-detect-method :

Detect returns the first item in the list for which the block returns TRUE. Your first example:

>> [1,2,3,4,5,6,7].detect { |x| x.between?(3,4) }
=> 3

Returns 3 because that is the first item in the list that returns TRUE for the expression x.between?(3,4).
detect stops iterating after the condition returns true for the first time. select will iterate until the end of the input list is reached and returns all of the items where the block returned true.

Module

There are several ways of using functions to group state and implement module-like functionality. The simplest is to have modules be objects that contain functions (and constants, and variables...). 

?

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

use strict;   var module = (function() {   // This cannot be seen outside of the module, so it will not create namespace   function aPrivateFunction(z) { return Math.sqrt(z); }     // Freezing and sealing are two ways to prevent accidental mutation of the   // module after creation.   return Object.freeze({      // These are accessible as module.anExportedFunction after the definition      anExportedFunction: function(x, y) { return x + aPrivateFunction(y); },      anotherExportedFunction: function(x) { return 2 * x; }   }); })();

Another variation mutates the global namespace object: 

?

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

use strict;   // Use function to create a local scope and persistent environment (function() {   function aPrivateFunction(z) { return Math.sqrt(z); }     // Mutate the global environment   this.anExportedFunction = function(x, y) { return x + aPrivateFunction(y); };   this.anotherExportedFunction = function(x) { return 2 * x; }; })();
