- ActiveRecord models
- Fixture files
- Tests and Specs
- Object Daddy exemplars
- Machinist blueprints
- Fabrication fabricators
- Thoughtbot's factory_bot factories, i.e. the `(spec|test)/factories/_factory.rb` files
- `routes.rb` file (for Rails projects)The schema comment looks like this:
```ruby
# == Schema Info
#
# Table name: line_items
#
# id :integer(11) not null, primary key
# quantity :integer(11) not null
# product_id :integer(11) not null
# unit_price :float
# order_id :integer(11)
#class LineItem < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :product
. . .
```It also annotates geometrical columns, `geom` type and `srid`,
when using `SpatialAdapter`, `PostgisAdapter` or `PostGISAdapter`:```ruby
# == Schema Info
#
# Table name: trips
#
# local :geometry point, 4326
# path :geometry line_string, 4326
```Also, if you pass the `-r` option, it'll annotate `routes.rb` with the output of `rake routes`.
## Upgrading to 3.X and annotate models not working?
In versions 2.7.X the annotate gem defaulted to annotating models if no arguments were passed in.
The annotate gem by default would not allow for routes and models to be annotated together.
A [change was added in #647](https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models/pull/647).
You [can read more here](https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models/issues/663).There are a few ways of fixing this:
- If using CLI explicitly pass in models flag using `--models`
OR
a) Running `rails g annotate:install` will overwrite your defaults with the annotating `models` option set to `'true'`.
b) In `lib/tasks/auto_annotate_models.rake` add the `models` key-value option:
```ruby
Annotate.set_defaults(
...
'models' => 'true',
...
```## Install
Into Gemfile from rubygems.org:
```ruby
group :development do
gem 'annotate'
end
```Into Gemfile from Github:
```ruby
group :development do
gem 'annotate', git: 'https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models.git'
end
```Into environment gems from rubygems.org:
gem install annotate
Into environment gems from Github checkout:
git clone https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models.git annotate_models
cd annotate_models
rake gem
gem install dist/annotate-*.gem## Usage
(If you used the Gemfile install, prefix the below commands with `bundle exec`.)
### Usage in Rails
To annotate all your models, tests, fixtures, and factories:
cd /path/to/app
annotateTo annotate just your models, tests, and factories:
annotate --models --exclude fixtures
To annotate just your models:
annotate --models
To annotate routes.rb:
annotate --routes
To remove model/test/fixture/factory/serializer annotations:
annotate --delete
To remove routes.rb annotations:
annotate --routes --delete
To automatically annotate every time you run `db:migrate`,
either run `rails g annotate:install`
or add `Annotate.load_tasks` to your `Rakefile`.See the [configuration in Rails](#configuration-in-rails) section for more info.
### Usage Outside of Rails
Everything above applies, except that `--routes` is not meaningful,
and you will probably need to explicitly set one or more `--require` option(s), and/or one or more `--model-dir` options
to inform `annotate` about the structure of your project and help it bootstrap and load the relevant code.## Configuration
If you want to always skip annotations on a particular model, add this string
anywhere in the file:# -*- SkipSchemaAnnotations
### Configuration in Rails
To generate a configuration file (in the form of a `.rake` file), to set
default options:rails g annotate:install
Edit this file to control things like output format, where annotations are
added (top or bottom of file), and in which artifacts.The generated rakefile `lib/tasks/auto_annotate_models.rake` also contains
`Annotate.load_tasks`. This adds a few rake tasks which duplicate command-line
functionality:rake annotate_models # Add schema information (as comments) to model and fixture files
rake annotate_routes # Adds the route map to routes.rb
rake remove_annotation # Remove schema information from model and fixture filesBy default, once you've generated a configuration file, annotate will be
executed whenever you run `rake db:migrate` (but only in development mode).
If you want to disable this behavior permanently,
edit the `.rake` file and change:```ruby
'skip_on_db_migrate' => 'false',
```To:
```ruby
'skip_on_db_migrate' => 'true',
```If you want to run `rake db:migrate` as a one-off without running annotate,
you can do so with a simple environment variable, instead of editing the
`.rake` file:ANNOTATE_SKIP_ON_DB_MIGRATE=1 rake db:migrate

CLI: `--additional-file-patterns`
Ruby: `:additional_file_patterns`Provide additional paths for the gem to annotate. These paths can include
globs. It is recommended to use absolute paths. Here are some examples:* `/app/lib/decorates/%MODEL_NAME%/*.rb`
* `/app/lib/forms/%PLURALIZED_MODEL_NAME%/**/*.rb`
* `/app/lib/forms/%TABLE_NAME%/*.rb`The appropriate model will be inferred using the `%*%` syntax, annotating any
matching files. It works with existing filename resolutions (options for which
can be found in the `resolve_filename` method of `annotate_models.rb`).When using in a Rails config, you can use the following:
`File.join(Rails.application.root,
'app/lib/forms/%PLURALIZED_MODEL_NAME%/***/**.rb')`## Sorting
By default, columns will be sorted in database order (i.e. the order in which
migrations were run).If you prefer to sort alphabetically so that the results of annotation are
consistent regardless of what order migrations are executed in, use `--sort`.## Markdown
The format produced is actually MultiMarkdown, making use of the syntax
extension for tables. It's recommended you use `kramdown` as your parser if
you want to use this format. If you're using `yard` to generate
documentation, specify a format of markdown with `kramdown` as the provider by
adding this to your `.yardopts` file:--markup markdown
--markup-provider kramdownBe sure to add this to your `Gemfile` as well:
gem 'kramdown', groups => [:development], require => false
## WARNING
**Don't add text after an automatically-created comment block.** This tool
will blow away the initial/final comment block in your models if it looks like
it was previously added by this gem.Be sure to check the changes that this tool makes! If you are using Git, you
may simply check your project's status after running `annotate`:$ git status
If you are not using a VCS (like Git, Subversion or similar), please tread
extra carefully, and consider using one.## Links
