    # Establishes the connection to the database. Accepts a hash as input where

    # example for regular databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc):
    #
    #   ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
    #     adapter:  "mysql2",

    #   ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
    #     adapter:  "sqlite3",
    #     database: "path/to/dbfile"
    #   )

    #
    #   ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
    #     "adapter"  => "sqlite3",
    #     "database" => "path/to/dbfile"
