Schema file does not reflect table removal migrations

Question

I removed several tables in my Rails database by running rails generate migration RemoveObjects and then ran rake db:migrate to complete the migration, however I am not seeing the change reflected in my schema.rb file.

What else should I do to remove references to these object from that file?

Answer 1

This migration will! You probably made a mistake inside the migration itself.

class DropTables < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def up
    drop_table :table_name
  end

  def down
    raise ActiveRecord::IrreversibleMigration
  end
end

Answer 2

Try this :

rake db:schema:dump
