Generate a Rails Application

Example of creating a Neo4j Application from scratch: (make sure you have installed JRuby version >= 1.6.2)

 gem install rails
 rails new myapp -m http://neo4jrb.github.com/neo4j/rails.rb -O
 cd myapp
 bundle
 rails generate scaffold User name:string email:string
 rails s
 open a webbrowser: http://localhost:3000/users

The -O flag above means that it will skip active record.

See Neo4j::Rails-Config for how to use rails console with write support.
