#primary_key(name, type = :primary_key, **options) ⇒ Object
Defines the primary key field. Use of the native PostgreSQL UUID type is supported, and can be used by defining your tables as such:
create_table :stuffs, id: :uuid do |t|
t.string :content
t.
end
By default, this will use the gen_random_uuid()
function.
To use a UUID primary key without any defaults, set the :default
option to nil
:
create_table :stuffs, id: false do |t|
t.primary_key :id, :uuid, default: nil
t.uuid :foo_id
t.
end
You may also pass a custom stored procedure that returns a UUID or use a different UUID generation function from another library.
Note that setting the UUID primary key default value to nil
will require you to assure that you always provide a UUID value before saving a record (as primary keys cannot be nil
). This might be done via the SecureRandom.uuid
method and a before_save
callback, for instance.
