Happy new year!
Way back in December I found an awesome article by Cakeexplorer on a script to build an
image of your db schema. I had been meaning to write such a script for some time, it was
great to have it already ticked off the to-do list.
There was one thing that I didn't like too much: it ran off the tables in the db rather than
the models in your app/models folder. Roll on a month and a bit and I still haven't heard back
re the comment I left on cakeexplorer's site with an updated script (which remains spookily
unpublished), so the updates I added to make it do that are stuck in a bakery article.
There's a screencast (first attempt at a screencast, don't
have overly high expectations!) too of the script in action. Such a gem should be given as much
visibility as possible IMO.
Check out the script, check out the 'cast, and above all...
Bake on!
