#primary_keyObject

Defines the primary key field – can be overridden in subclasses. Overwriting will negate any effect of the primary_key_prefix_type setting, though.

def primary_key
  @primary_key || 'id'
end

#primary_key=(value) ⇒ Object

Sets the name of the primary key column.

class Project < DatastaxRails::Base
  self.primary_key = 'sysid'
end

You can also define the primary_key method yourself:

class Project < DatastaxRails::Base
  def self.primary_key
    'foo_' + super
  end
end

Project.primary_key # => "foo_id"
