Hey @GitToTheHub we reserve the Rails Issues tracker for bugs in the framework as we don't have the bandwidth to offer application support. Please use stackoverflow or the Rails forum for help with your application. Thanks for understanding.

Hey @fatkodima, thanks for the explanation, I understand this. When there is no functionality for generating a migration for renaming a table, where can i report this. In the Rails forum?

from rails.

You can ask on the forum if the feature is something people want to see in the framework. Personally, I don't think it is needed, but maybe someone else think the opposite.

We have some "meta-syntax" for other migration-related generators

Cool, thanks for the code where i can find it. I know that it is not absolutely necessary. It would just be for the sake of completeness.

AFAIK there is nothing like completeness goal in here. There are 2 basic cases guessed from migration name to cover the most used and simple commands.

Renaming table is relatively tricky operation in common production runtime and instead of renaming, you can rename model and point to original table name.
