VerticaRailsAdapter

Vertica adapter for ActiveRecord. This adapter gives you the power of ActiveRecord for your Vertica connection. This adapter uses the vertica gem.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'vertica_rails_adapter'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install vertica_rails_adapter

Usage

Create the basic connection to the vertica database (i.e. app/models/vertica_db.rb):

   module VerticaDb
         class Base < ActiveRecord::Base
           establish_connection(Settings[:vertica_prod])
         end
   end

   Dir['vertica_db/*.rb'].each { | f | require File.expand_path(f) }

Create a folder inside app/models/ (i.e. app/models/vertica_db/) and define your models there (users.rb):

   module VerticaDb
     class Yoda < VerticaDb::Base
     set_table_name "users"
     end
   end
