Connect to existing Postgresql database with ActiveRecord without rails

I am not using rails, and I'm trying to use ActiveRecord to make it easier to work with an existing database. This is just a script so I have no database.yml or any other files. I've set up my database connection using ``` ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection( adapter: 'postgresql', host: 'thehosthere', database: 'management', username: 'management_readonly', password: '', port: '5432' ) ``` I'm not really familiar with databases, so I'll just state what I know about this one. There are quite a few schemas. The schema I'm interested in is the management schema that has the table "host". I've created a class Host in the script like this: ``` class Host < ActiveRecord::Base self.table_name = "host" end ``` I'm then trying to pull all rows that match the criteria with this query and to store it into an array. ``` servers = Host.where(:realm => 'stage', :status => 'UP').pluck(:hostname) ``` but I am getting this error every single time. ``` ruby environments_are_okDev.rb /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:768:in `exec': PG::UndefinedTable: ERROR: relation "host" does not exist (ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid) LINE 5: WHERE a.attrelid = '"host"'::regclass ^ : SELECT a.attname, format_type(a.atttypid, a.atttypmod), pg_get_expr(d.adbin, d.adrelid), a.attnotnull, a.atttypid, a.atttypmod FROM pg_attribute a LEFT JOIN pg_attrdef d ON a.attrelid = d.adrelid AND a.attnum = d.adnum WHERE a.attrelid = '"host"'::regclass AND a.attnum > 0 AND NOT a.attisdropped ORDER BY a.attnum from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:768:in `exec_no_cache' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql/database_statements.rb:138:in `block in exec_query' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb:425:in `block in log' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activesupport-4.0.0/lib/active_support/notifications/instrumenter.rb:20:in `instrument' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb:420:in `log' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql/database_statements.rb:137:in `exec_query' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:915:in `column_definitions' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql/schema_statements.rb:174:in `columns' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/schema_cache.rb:114:in `block in prepare_default_proc' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/schema_cache.rb:56:in `yield' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/schema_cache.rb:56:in `default' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/schema_cache.rb:56:in `columns' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/model_schema.rb:208:in `columns' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/model_schema.rb:247:in `column_names' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/relation/delegation.rb:60:in `block in method_missing' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/relation.rb:270:in `scoping' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/relation/delegation.rb:60:in `method_missing' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/relation/calculations.rb:152:in `block in pluck' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/relation/calculations.rb:151:in `map!' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/relation/calculations.rb:151:in `pluck' from environments_are_okDev.rb:51:in `run' from environments_are_okDev.rb:97:in `<main>' ``` I don't really understand why this is happening, so I tried to see what the database looks like with this command `ActiveRecord::Base.connection.tables` but all I got was an empty array. I'm not sure what could be happening. I'm obviously doing something wrong, I just can't figure out what. Keep in mind, this is all in a single file script. Edit: So I can see the schemas if I use `ActiveRecord::Base.connection.schema_names`. This gives me an array `=> ["db_stats", "management", "management_audit", "public"]` Using pgadmin, I know that the table I want is in management, so how do I access that?
