Overview

Allows programmers to programmatically define a schema in a portable DSL. This means you can define tables, indexes, etc. without using SQL directly, so your applications can more easily support multiple databases.

Usage:

ActiveRecord::Schema[7.0].define do
create_table :authors do |t|
  t.string :name, null: false
end

add_index :authors, :name, unique: true

create_table :posts do |t|
  t.integer :author_id, null: false
  t.string :subject
  t.text :body
  t.boolean :private, default: false
end

add_index :posts, :author_id
end

Schema is only supported by database adapters that also support migrations, the two features being very similar.

  raise ActiveRecordError, "No __END__ found in #{file}" if marker.empty?
