[英]Adding a Model Reference to existing Rails model
I'd like to know the "proper" way to approach adding a relation between two existing classes in Rails 3.我想知道在 Rails 3 中的两个现有类之间添加关系的“正确”方法。
Given existing models: Clown & Rabbit鉴于现有模型:小丑和兔子
I'd like to add a reference (belongs_to) from Rabbit to Clown.我想添加一个从 Rabbit 到 Clown 的引用 (belongs_to)。 I start by trying to generate a migration:
我首先尝试生成迁移:
rails g migration AddClownToRabbits clown:reference
which gives me a migration that looks like:这给了我一个看起来像的迁移:
class AddClownToRabbits < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
add_column :rabbits, :clown, :reference
end
def self.down
remove_column :rabbits, :clown
end
end
After rake db:migrate
on this migration I examine SQLite3's development.db and see a new column: "clown" reference
在
rake db:migrate
在这次迁移之后,我检查了 SQLite3 的 development.db 并看到一个新列: "clown" reference
I guess I was expecting a "clown_id" integer
column and a migration that looked like:我想我期待一个
"clown_id" integer
列和一个看起来像这样的迁移:
class AddClownToRabbits < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
add_column :rabbits, :clown_id
end
def self.down
remove_column :rabbits, :clown_id
end
end
I'm sure :reference is supposed to be equivalent to "t.references :clown" but I can't find the documentation (big surprise).我确信 :reference 应该等同于“t.references :clown”,但我找不到文档(大惊喜)。 API says add_column:
Instantiates a new column for the table. The type parameter is normally one of the migrations native types, which is one of the following: :primary_key, :string, :text, :integer, :float, :decimal, :datetime, :timestamp, :time, :date, :binary, :boolean.

...with no reference to :reference. ...没有参考:参考。
After you set belongs_to in Rabbit, and has_many in Clown, you can do a migration with:在Rabbit中设置belongs_to并在Clown中设置has_many后,您可以使用以下命令进行迁移:
add_column :rabbit, :clown_id, :integer

I'm not sure where you got this idea, but there is no (and never has been) such syntax to do what you want with add_column
.我不确定你是从哪里得到这个想法的,但是没有(也从来没有)这样的语法可以用
add_column
做你想做的add_column
。 To get the behavior you want, you'd have to do t.refences :clown
, as you stated.要获得您想要的行为,您必须执行
t.refences :clown
,正如您所说。 In the background this will call: @base.add_column(@table_name, "#{col}_id", :integer, options)
.在后台这将调用:
@base.add_column(@table_name, "#{col}_id", :integer, options)
。
EDIT:编辑:
I think I can see the source of your confusion.我想我可以看到你困惑的根源。 You saw the method call
t.reference
and assumed it was a datatype because calls such as t.integer
and t.string
exist, and those are datatypes.您看到了方法调用
t.reference
并假定它是一种数据类型,因为存在诸如t.integer
和t.string
调用,而这些都是数据类型。 That's wrong.那是错误的。 Reference isn't a datatype, it's just simply the name of a method, similar to
t.rename
is.引用不是数据类型,它只是一个方法的名称,类似于
t.rename
。
