Features

• Streamlined way of using multiple databases with ActiveRecord

multi_ar --help
# list available databases for usage
multi_ar -l
# configure database
cp config/database.yaml.example config/database.yaml
vi config/database.yaml # change foo in foo_development to one of databases in multi_ar -l
# list rake tasks that the gem supports
