When I first tried to use foxy fixtures in rails, it didn't work. The ids it was assigning for foreign keys were way off. The problem seemed to be the fact that I was specifying the primary keys explicitly. I removed the id: attribute on all my fixtures and everything worked.
So this...
# in authors.yml
justin:
id: 1
name: Justin
# in articles.yml
how_to_fry_turkeys:
id: 1
author_id: 1
title: How to Fry Turkeys
Didn't work when I changed it to this:
# in authors.yml
justin:
id: 1
name: Justin
# in articles.yml
how_to_fry_turkeys:
id: 1
author: justin
title: How to Fry Turkeys
But did when I changed it to this:
# in authors.yml
justin:
name: Justin
# in articles.yml
how_to_fry_turkeys:
author: justin
title: How to Fry Turkeys
