Largely, you just ignore migrations and mostly ignore Rails models.

Inherit from ActiveRecord::Base, list the attributes that can be bulk set, and 
you’re done. Rails connects to the db and reads the schema. Now of course you 
will wind up adding validations and calculations and relations and so forth, 
and you may have to specify the table name if it doesn’t follow RoR 
conventions. But really, the answer to your question is not just “yes”, it’s 
“yes and it’s so easy that you’re completely missing it by looking for 
something harder” ;-)
