defmodule Mix.Tasks.Phx.Gen.Schema do @shortdoc "Generates an Ecto schema and migration file" @moduledoc """ Generates an Ecto schema and migration. $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts title:string views:integer The first argument is the schema module followed by its plural name (used as the table name). The generated schema above will contain: * a schema file in `lib/my_app/blog/post.ex`, with a `blog_posts` table * a migration file for the repository The generated migration can be skipped with `--no-migration`. ## Contexts Your schemas can be generated and added to a separate OTP app. Make sure your configuration is properly setup or manually specify the context app with the `--context-app` option with the CLI. Via config: config :marketing_web, :generators, context_app: :marketing Via CLI: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts title:string views:integer --context-app marketing ## Attributes The resource fields are given using `name:type` syntax where type are the types supported by Ecto. Omitting the type makes it default to `:string`: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts title views:integer The following types are supported: #{for attr <- Mix.Phoenix.Schema.valid_types(), do: " * `#{inspect attr}`\n"} * `:datetime` - An alias for `:naive_datetime` The generator also supports references, which we will properly associate the given column to the primary key column of the referenced table: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts title user_id:references:users This will result in a migration with an `:integer` column of `:user_id` and create an index. Furthermore an array type can also be given if it is supported by your database, although it requires the type of the underlying array element to be given too: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts tags:array:string Unique columns can be automatically generated by using: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts title:unique unique_int:integer:unique Redact columns can be automatically generated by using: $ mix phx.gen.schema Accounts.Superhero superheroes secret_identity:redact password:string:redact Ecto.Enum fields can be generated by using: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post blog_posts title status:enum:unpublished:published:deleted If no data type is given, it defaults to a string. ## table By default, the table name for the migration and schema will be the plural name provided for the resource. To customize this value, a `--table` option may be provided. For example: $ mix phx.gen.schema Blog.Post posts --table cms_posts ## binary_id Generated migration can use `binary_id` for schema's primary key and its references with option `--binary-id`. ## Default options This generator uses default options provided in the `:generators` configuration of your application. These are the defaults: config :your_app, :generators, migration: true, binary_id: false, sample_binary_id: "11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111" You can override those options per invocation by providing corresponding switches, e.g. `--no-binary-id` to use normal ids despite the default configuration or `--migration` to force generation of the migration.
