Using the Repository to Add Data

With our database ready, we can begin to persist our User structs. Let’s hop into an IEx shell and create the users that we previously hard-coded in our in-memory repository. We’ll worry about hashing the password later.

This Is a Bad Idea
	You don’t want to store plain-text passwords into your database! We’ll temporarily save plain-text passwords only as an intermediate step toward a more sophisticated user authentication system.

Spin up your console with iex -S mix, and insert some data:

iex> alias Rumbl.Repo
iex> alias Rumbl.User

iex> Repo.insert(%User{
...>   name: "José", username:  ...
