Hide ApplicationRecord

[mathieujobin]

Maybe as an option, recent rails application added a base class between AR::Base and application models.

currently, I see it on my ERD, but I'm not too sure I want it. It can be confusing for Data Scientist not familiar with Rails and OOP.

@mathieujobin which rev of Rails is doing this? 5.2.2? 6.0.0?

[marktellez]

Rails 6+, although I think ApplicationRecord was introduced in 5.

@kerrizor To add onto this, with Rails 6.0.3.3, when using the bundle exec rake erd or bundle exec erc, everything generates as expected

But using the auto generation after migration task, the ActiveRecord::SchemaMigration and ActiveRecord::InternalMetadata rails models are included in the erd
