A Sequel extension to make seeds/fixtures manageable like migrations

Create a seed file (eg. /path/to/seeds/20150928000000_initial_seed.rb)

Sequel.seed(:development, :test) do # Applies only to "development" and "test" environments
  def run
    [
      ['USD', 'United States dollar'],
      ['BRL', 'Brazilian real']
    ].each do |abbr, name|
      Currency.create abbr: abbr, name: name
    end
  end
end

Set the environment

Sequel::Seed.setup :development

Load the extension

require 'sequel'
require 'sequel/extensions/seed'

Sequel.extension :seed

Apply the seeds/fixtures

DB = Sequel.connect(...)
Sequel::Seeder.apply(DB, "/path/to/seeds")

For more information, please check the project website.

• JSON and YAML files don't work with associations
• Only timestamped seed/fixture files

Work with Model's associations inside JSON & YAML files
