Methods
Adds a new check constraint to the table. expression
is a String
representation of verifiable boolean condition.
add_check_constraint :products, "price > 0", name: "price_check"
generates:
ALTER TABLE "products" ADD CONSTRAINT price_check CHECK (price > 0)
The options
hash can include the following keys:
:name
The constraint name. Defaults to chk_rails_<identifier>
.
:if_not_exists
Silently ignore if the constraint already exists, rather than raise an error.
:validate
(PostgreSQL only) Specify whether or not the constraint should be validated. Defaults to true
.

Add a new type
column named column_name
to table_name
.
See ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::TableDefinition.column.
The type
parameter is normally one of the migrations native types, which is one of the following: :primary_key
, :string
, :text
, :integer
, :bigint
, :float
, :decimal
, :numeric
, :datetime
, :time
, :date
, :binary
, :blob
, :boolean
.
You may use a type not in this list as long as it is supported by your database (for example, âpolygonâ in MySQL
), but this will not be database agnostic and should usually be avoided.
Available options are (none of these exists by default):
:comment
- Specifies the comment for the column. This option is ignored by some backends.
:collation
- Specifies the collation for a :string
or :text
column. If not specified, the column will have the same collation as the table.
:default
- The columnâs default value. Use nil
for NULL
.
:limit
- Requests a maximum column length. This is the number of characters for a :string
column and number of bytes for :text
, :binary
, :blob
, and :integer
columns. This option is ignored by some backends.
:null
- Allows or disallows NULL
values in the column.
:precision
- Specifies the precision for the :decimal
, :numeric
, :datetime
, and :time
columns.
:scale
- Specifies the scale for the :decimal
and :numeric
columns.
:if_not_exists
- Specifies if the column already exists to not try to re-add it. This will avoid duplicate column errors.
Note: The precision is the total number of significant digits, and the scale is the number of digits that can be stored following the decimal point. For example, the number 123.45 has a precision of 5 and a scale of 2. A decimal with a precision of 5 and a scale of 2 can range from -999.99 to 999.99.
Please be aware of different RDBMS implementations behavior with :decimal
columns:
The SQL standard says the default scale should be 0, :scale
<= :precision
, and makes no comments about the requirements of :precision
.
MySQL: :precision
[1..65], :scale
[0..30]. Default is (10,0).
PostgreSQL: :precision
[1..infinity], :scale
[0..infinity]. No default.
SQLite3: No restrictions on :precision
and :scale
, but the maximum supported :precision
is 16. No default.
Oracle: :precision
[1..38], :scale
[-84..127]. Default is (38,0).
SqlServer: :precision
[1..38], :scale
[0..38]. Default (38,0).

Adds a new foreign key. from_table
is the table with the key column, to_table
contains the referenced primary key.
The foreign key will be named after the following pattern: fk_rails_<identifier>
. identifier
is a 10 character long string which is deterministically generated from the from_table
and column
. A custom name can be specified with the :name
option.
add_foreign_key :articles, :authors

. Pass an array to create a composite foreign key.
:primary_key
The primary key column name on to_table
. Defaults to id
. Pass an array to create a composite foreign key.
:name

def change_column(table_name, column_name, type, **options) raise NotImplementedError, "change_column is not implemented" endchange_column_comment(table_name, column_name, comment_or_changes) Link
Changes the comment for a column or removes it if nil
.
Passing a hash containing :from
and :to
will make this change reversible in migration:
change_column_comment(:posts, :state, from: "old_comment", to: "new_comment")
change_column_default(table_name, column_name, default_or_changes) Link
Sets a new default value for a column:
change_column_default(:suppliers, :qualification, 'new')
change_column_default(:accounts, :authorized, 1)
Setting the default to nil
effectively drops the default:
change_column_default(:users, :email, nil)

will make this change reversible in migration:

def change_column_default(table_name, column_name, default_or_changes) raise NotImplementedError, "change_column_default is not implemented" endchange_column_null(table_name, column_name, null, default = nil) Link
Sets or removes a NOT NULL
constraint on a column. The null
flag indicates whether the value can be NULL
. For example
change_column_null(:users, :nickname, false)
says nicknames cannot be NULL
(adds the constraint), whereas
change_column_null(:users, :nickname, true)
allows them to be NULL
(drops the constraint).
The method accepts an optional fourth argument to replace existing NULL
s with some other value. Use that one when enabling the constraint if needed, since otherwise those rows would not be valid.
Please note the fourth argument does not set a columnâs default.

You can pass an options
hash which can include the following keys:

Sets the table name, overriding the default.
:column_options
Any extra options you want appended to the columns definition.
:options
Any extra options you want appended to the table definition.
:temporary
Make a temporary table.

Set to true to drop the table before creating it. Defaults to false.
Note that create_join_table

Creates a new table with the name table_name
. table_name
may either be a String
or a Symbol
.
There are two ways to work with create_table
. You can use the block form or the regular form, like this:
# create_table() passes a TableDefinition object to the block.
# This form will not only create the table, but also columns for the
# table.
create_table(:suppliers) do |t|
t.column :name, :string, limit: 60
# Other fields here
end
Block form, with shorthand
# You can also use the column types as method calls, rather than calling the column method.
create_table(:suppliers) do |t|
t.string :name, limit: 60
# Other fields here
end
Regular form
# Creates a table called 'suppliers' with no columns.
create_table(:suppliers)
# Add a column to 'suppliers'.
add_column(:suppliers, :name, :string, {limit: 60})
The options
hash can include the following keys:
:id
Whether to automatically add a primary key column. Defaults to true. Join tables for ActiveRecord::Base.has_and_belongs_to_many should set it to false.
A Symbol
can be used to specify the type of the generated primary key column.
:primary_key
The name of the primary key, if one is to be added automatically. Defaults to id
. If :id
is false, then this option is ignored.
If an array is passed, a composite primary key will be created.
Note that Active Record models will automatically detect their primary key. This can be avoided by using self.primary_key= on the model to define the key explicitly.
:options
Any extra options you want appended to the table definition.
:temporary
Make a temporary table.
:force
Set to true to drop the table before creating it. Set to :cascade
to drop dependent objects as well. Defaults to false.
:if_not_exists
Set to true to avoid raising an error when the table already exists. Defaults to false.
:as
SQL to use to generate the table. When this option is used, the block is ignored, as are the :id
and :primary_key
options.

as: "SELECT * FROM orders INNER JOIN line_items ON order_id=orders.id")
generates:
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE long_query AS
SELECT * FROM orders INNER JOIN line_items ON order_id=orders.id

for details on how to create columns.

Drops the join table specified by the given arguments. See create_join_table

method so it can be reverted. In that case, the block will be used by create_join_table

Drops a table or tables from the database.

Set to :cascade
to drop dependent objects as well. Defaults to false.
:if_exists
Set to true
to only drop the table if it exists. Defaults to false.
Although this command ignores most options
and the block if one is given, it can be helpful to provide these in a migrationâs change
method so it can be reverted. In that case, options
