Hi guys just need some guidance here please. Let's say I have to exit a project for whatever reason. When I got back to it later I go in the terminal re-enter the project i.e. cd biller/ go into mysql bring up the databases then switch to the databases that I was using. Now it's time to add to teh project I wasn't quite sure how to go about this so I opened a new tab in Terminal and ran ' rails new migrate Account". But apparently this was the wrong way to go about this as it started to generate a completely new project.
Should I just exit mysql once i've switched to the database that I want. Reload and keep going ? Or will "rails c" bring up what I need?
Thanks in advance!

or want to do some command it shows when you rake db -T
or, you can simply could rails console
on your project folder already made. Or, do you might want to do rails new your_another_project --database=mysql
? it's more like a question, not an answer. but hope it helps
