Oh well. Just tiring when you deal with bigger models.

Definitely can. Just need a SQL DDL parser, spitting Ruby codes 
as they go along. It won't be as difficult as the database 
interface since the parser doesn't have to care whether certain 
type or option is applicable for certain database engine.

Any suggestion where to start (any language parser in Ruby)? If 
not I probably grab perl SQL parser for that.

Thanks!
