How to avoid reserved keywords in rails

_config.yml

How do you know whether a word is reserved or not?

So I’m always on the look out for new and innovative ways to stuff up my rails apps. Recently I by chanced name a model something I should not have.

Now I’ve found a way to minimise your chances of doing that.

You can go to this site and search.

Personally I think that rails should check for this prior to generating a resource etc.
