All the commands you need in one page

Table: friends | Stores data
Model: Friend | Data validation & relationships like belongs_to or belongs_to
Controller: friend | Says what to do and where to do it

Module name Friend | Table name friends

Create the module

./script/generate controller Friends [list view new edit]

creates

apps/controllers/friends_controller.rb

apps/helpers/friends_helper.rb

if you specify any actions you will also get

app/view/friends/action.rhtml

To generate the model

./script/generate model Friend

If you wanna use the scaffold for this module just open

apps/controllers/friends_controller.rb

and modify it to

class FriendsController < ApplicationController
scaffold :friend
end

If running this command :

./script/plugin install engines

you get the message:

Plugin not found: engines

Is because none of the server listed in your plugin sources has the engine plugin.

So, open the file .rails-plugin-sources

vi ~/.rails-plugin-sources

and add this line

http://opensvn.csie.org/rails_engines/plugins/

This source has the engine plugin and many other listed at http://rails-engines.org/
