Ext Scaffold plugin

Plugin details

Scaffolds an entire resource, from model and migration to controller and views, along with a full test suite, just like the standard Rails scaffold generator. The ext_scaffold generator uses the Ext Javascript framwork to build the GUI elements (forms and tables).

Pass the name of the model, either CamelCased or under_scored, as the first argument, and an optional list of attribute pairs.

Attribute pairs are column_name:sql_type arguments specifying the model's attributes. Timestamps are added by default, so you don't have to specify them by hand as 'created_at:datetime updated_at:datetime'.
