Sequel::Schema::AlterTableGenerator

Schema::AlterTableGenerator is an internal class that the user is not expected to instantiate directly. Instances are created by Database#alter_table. It is used to specify table alteration parameters. It takes a Database object and a block of operations to perform on the table, and gives the Database a table an array of operations, which the database uses to alter a table's description.

For more information on Sequel’s support for schema modification, see the “Migrations and Schema Modification” guide.

Attributes

operations[R]

An array of DDL operations to perform

Public Class Methods

new(db, &block) click to toggle source

Set the Database object to which to apply the DDL, and evaluate the block in the context of this object.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 219
def initialize(db, &block)
  @db = db
  @operations = []
  instance_eval(&block) if block
end

Public Instance Methods

add_column(name, type, opts = {}) click to toggle source

Add a column with the given name, type, and opts to the DDL for the table. See Generator#column for the available options.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 227
def add_column(name, type, opts = {})
  @operations << {:op => :add_column, :name => name, :type => type}.merge(opts)
end
add_constraint(name, *args, &block) click to toggle source

Add a constraint with the given name and args to the DDL for the table. See Generator#constraint.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 233
def add_constraint(name, *args, &block)
  @operations << {:op => :add_constraint, :name => name, :type => :check, :check => block || args}
end
add_foreign_key(name, table, opts = {}) click to toggle source

Add a foreign key with the given name and referencing the given table to the DDL for the table. See Generator#column for the available options.

You can also pass an array of column names for creating composite foreign keys. In this case, it will assume the columns exists and will only add the constraint.

NOTE: If you need to add a foreign key constraint to an existing column use the composite key syntax even if it is only one column.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 251
def add_foreign_key(name, table, opts = {})
  return add_composite_foreign_key(name, table, opts) if name.is_a?(Array)
  add_column(name, Integer, {:table=>table}.merge(opts))
end
add_full_text_index(columns, opts = {}) click to toggle source

Add a full text index on the given columns to the DDL for the table. See Generator#index for available options.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 258
def add_full_text_index(columns, opts = {})
  add_index(columns, {:type=>:full_text}.merge(opts))
end
add_index(columns, opts = {}) click to toggle source

Add an index on the given columns to the DDL for the table. See Generator#index for available options.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 270
def add_primary_key(name, opts = {})
  return add_composite_primary_key(name, opts) if name.is_a?(Array)
  opts = @db.serial_primary_key_options.merge(opts)
  add_column(name, opts.delete(:type), opts)
end
add_spatial_index(columns, opts = {}) click to toggle source

Add a spatial index on the given columns to the DDL for the table. See Generator#index for available options.

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 278
def add_spatial_index(columns, opts = {})
  add_index(columns, {:type=>:spatial}.merge(opts))
end

Add a unique constraint to the given column(s)

# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 238
