Change starting id number

Question

I have an \'Account\' model in Rails with its corresponding \'accounts\' table in the database. If I wipe the database and start over, the \'account_id\' field will always star

Answer 1

You'll need to do some specialized database-dependent SQL to get this functionality.

If you're using MySQL, you can add the following code to your migration after the create_table code:

execute("ALTER TABLE tbl AUTO_INCREMENT = 1000")
