title: Build a Ruby App with CockroachDB
summary: Learn how to use CockroachDB from a simple Ruby application with the Active Record ORM.

</div>

This tutorial shows you how build a simple Ruby application with CockroachDB using a PostgreSQL-compatible driver or ORM. We've tested and can recommend the [Ruby pg driver](https://rubygems.org/gems/pg) and the [Active Record ORM](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_basics.html), so those are featured here.

## Step 1. Install the Active Record ORM

To install Active Record as well as the [pg driver](https://rubygems.org/gems/pg) and a [CockroachDB Ruby package](https://github.com/cockroachdb/activerecord-cockroachdb-adapter) that accounts for some minor differences between CockroachDB and PostgreSQL, run the following command:

This should be spelled ActiveRecord, not Active Record, throughout.

## Step 5. Run the Ruby code

The following code uses the [Active Record](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_basics.html) ORM to map Ruby-specific objects to SQL operations. Specifically, `Schema.new.change()` creates an `accounts` table based on the Account model (or drops and recreates the table if it already exists), `Account.create()` inserts rows into the table, and `Account.all.each` selects from the table so that balances can be printed.

Remove the .each - the thing doing the selecting is just Account.all.
