Use Camping.goes

It is not recommended that you write your application under the Camping module.

 #!ruby
 # NOT RECOMMENDED
 module Camping::Models
   class Post < Base; end
 end

Instead, Camping.goes can fill up a new module for you with the full set of Camping gear. This way you can use apps together without them crashing into each other.

 #!ruby
 # HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
 Camping.goes :Blog
 module Blog::Models
   class Post < Base; end
 end

Table names reflect the new module. The above class corresponds to the blog_posts table.

Once again, remember that even applications which use goes will all share a database through ActiveRecord::Base. You only need to establish ONE (1) connection between these applications. It is recommended that you use Camping::Models::Base.establish_connection to do this.
