Could not find generator rspec_model issue

Question

I am trying to create an rspec for my model User but every time I run:

rails g rspec_model User

I get Could not find generator rspec_model.

Answer 1

Please use (once):

rails generate rspec:install

It will create the various files and the spec directory. You will then need to, for example, create the models directory and start creating specs in that directory.

Once you configure your application for rspec, script/rails generate ModelName will also create the rspec skeleton files I believe.
