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 an array of table altering 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.
operations | [R] | An array of DDL operations to perform |
Add a column with the given name, type, and opts to the DDL for the table. See Generator#column for the available options.
add_column(:name, String) # ADD COLUMN name varchar(255)
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 260 260: def add_column(name, type, opts = {}) 261: @operations << {:op => :add_column, :name => name, :type => type}.merge(opts) 262: end
Add a constraint with the given name and args to the DDL for the table. See Generator#constraint.
add_constraint(:valid_name, :name.like('A%')) # ADD CONSTRAINT valid_name CHECK (name LIKE 'A%')
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 269 269: def add_constraint(name, *args, &block) 270: @operations << {:op => :add_constraint, :name => name, :type => :check, :check => block || args} 271: end
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 a single existing column use the composite key syntax even if it is only one column.
add_foreign_key(:artist_id, :table) # ADD COLUMN artist_id integer REFERENCES table add_foreign_key([:name], :table) # ADD FOREIGN KEY (name) REFERENCES table
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 293 293: def add_foreign_key(name, table, opts = {}) 294: return add_composite_foreign_key(name, table, opts) if name.is_a?(Array) 295: add_column(name, Integer, {:table=>table}.merge(opts)) 296: end
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 300 300: def add_full_text_index(columns, opts = {}) 301: add_index(columns, {:type=>:full_text}.merge(opts)) 302: end
Add an index on the given columns to the DDL for the table. See Generator#index for available options.
add_index(:artist_id) # CREATE INDEX table_artist_id_index ON table (artist_id)
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 308 308: def add_index(columns, opts = {}) 309: @operations << {:op => :add_index, :columns => Array(columns)}.merge(opts) 310: end
Add a primary key to the DDL for the table. See Generator#column for the available options. Like add_foreign_key, if you specify the column name as an array, it just creates a constraint:
add_primary_key(:id) # ADD COLUMN id serial PRIMARY KEY add_primary_key([:artist_id, :name]) # ADD PRIMARY KEY (artist_id, name)
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 318 318: def add_primary_key(name, opts = {}) 319: return add_composite_primary_key(name, opts) if name.is_a?(Array) 320: opts = @db.serial_primary_key_options.merge(opts) 321: add_column(name, opts.delete(:type), opts) 322: end
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 326 326: def add_spatial_index(columns, opts = {}) 327: add_index(columns, {:type=>:spatial}.merge(opts)) 328: end
Add a unique constraint to the given column(s)
add_unique_constraint(:name) # ADD UNIQUE (name) add_unique_constraint(:name, :name=>:unique_name) # ADD CONSTRAINT unique_name UNIQUE (name)
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 277 277: def add_unique_constraint(columns, opts = {}) 278: @operations << {:op => :add_constraint, :type => :unique, :columns => Array(columns)}.merge(opts) 279: end
Remove a column from the DDL for the table.
drop_column(:artist_id) # DROP COLUMN artist_id drop_column(:artist_id, :cascade=>true) # DROP COLUMN artist_id CASCADE
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 334 334: def drop_column(name, opts={}) 335: @operations << {:op => :drop_column, :name => name}.merge(opts) 336: end
Remove a constraint from the DDL for the table.
drop_constraint(:unique_name) # DROP CONSTRAINT unique_name drop_constraint(:unique_name, :cascade=>true) # DROP CONSTRAINT unique_name CASCADE
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 342 342: def drop_constraint(name, opts={}) 343: @operations << {:op => :drop_constraint, :name => name}.merge(opts) 344: end
Remove an index from the DDL for the table.
drop_index(:artist_id) # DROP INDEX table_artist_id_index drop_index([:a, :b]) # DROP INDEX table_a_b_index drop_index([:a, :b], :name=>:foo) # DROP INDEX foo
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 351 351: def drop_index(columns, options={}) 352: @operations << {:op => :drop_index, :columns => Array(columns)}.merge(options) 353: end
Modify a column‘s name in the DDL for the table.
rename_column(:name, :artist_name) # RENAME COLUMN name TO artist_name
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 358 358: def rename_column(name, new_name, opts = {}) 359: @operations << {:op => :rename_column, :name => name, :new_name => new_name}.merge(opts) 360: end
Modify a column‘s NOT NULL constraint.
set_column_allow_null(:artist_name, false) # ALTER COLUMN artist_name SET NOT NULL
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 379 379: def set_column_allow_null(name, allow_null) 380: @operations << {:op => :set_column_null, :name => name, :null => allow_null} 381: end
Modify a column‘s default value in the DDL for the table.
set_column_default(:artist_name, 'a') # ALTER COLUMN artist_name SET DEFAULT 'a'
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 365 365: def set_column_default(name, default) 366: @operations << {:op => :set_column_default, :name => name, :default => default} 367: end
Modify a column‘s type in the DDL for the table.
set_column_type(:artist_name, 'char(10)') # ALTER COLUMN artist_name TYPE char(10)
# File lib/sequel/database/schema_generator.rb, line 372 372: def set_column_type(name, type, opts={}) 373: @operations << {:op => :set_column_type, :name => name, :type => type}.merge(opts) 374: end
