+ (Object) parse_type(ftype)

Parse a postgresql type. Returns a hash with these fields (as Symbol)

  • ftype: the full type, as passed in to this method.

  • type: the type stripped of all attribute information.

  • size: the LHS of the attribute information, typically the precision.

  • decimal: the RHS of the attribute information, typically the scale.

  • array: true if this type is actually an array of that type.
