如何在Rails控制台上的同一模型内创建的另一个表中添加新记录？

Question

I have created a model using this command

rails g model UserPost postId:string postDesc:string

than after I created another table with

rails g migration CreateUser name:string email:string

So, running rails console , I was only able to add records on user_posts table with for example

user=UserPost.create(post_id:"My Post", post_desc:"This is my post")

My question is to know how to add new records on user table? With Sql, this is done using table_name as

INSERT INTO TABLE user_posts values("My Post", "This is my post")

and

INSERT INTO TABLE users values("my_name", "my_email")

but on Rails, I think it uses model's name.

Note: rake db:migrate has been run at its specific time.

First of all, you should change table name of user table to users since it's convenient. Then you should create a model for your users table: rails g model user . Then you will be able to add records to users table as you adding records to the posts: User.create(name: 'my_name', email: 'my_email') .

UPD You should have a rails model to each db table unless it's a join table
