List of Rails Model Types

Question

Does someone have a complete list of model types that be specified when generating a model scaffolding

e.g.

foo:string 
bar:text 
baz:boolean
         


        

Answer 1

The attributes are SQL types, hence the following are supported:

• :binary
• :boolean
• :date
• :datetime
• :decimal
• :float
• :integer
• :primary_key
• :string
• :text
• :time
• :timestamp

These are documented under column in the Active Record API.
