You should search for "mongoid" in rails. Mongoid is one of the adpater for mongodb. You can below link to get started
http://mongoid.org/en/mongoid/docs/installation.html

Note that since this isn't SQL, it won't be as simple as just changing your database,yml (as it would be if switching to postgres) - you'll have to regenerate the models.

Please suggest better resources for learning sqlite3

I was writing a Python script for getting the user stats of a website(Specifically codereview.stackexchange). I wanted to store the stats in a database. I found Python3's sqlite3 library. I found that I needed sql commands for using it.

I have tried sql.learncodethehardway but it isn't complete yet. I tired looking on stackoverflow's sql tag also but nothing much there. Can someone suggest me better resources for learning sql/sqlite3?

using mongodb with ActiveRecord or other in Ruby on Rails

We recently looked at mongoDB a bit. I was discussing using mongoDB with active record but was told that maybe there are other or better options. Can someone comment on that ?

Also, someone suggested storing a ruby array directly inside of a record where I would have opted for the array to be a separate set of records in active record using has_many and belongs_to .. It seemed to me that how I search on those child records would be a big factor but I soon realized I need to find out what are the options. Do people store arrays and hashes directly in mongo DB fields or is that not the best way to go ?
