#schemaObject

Returns table schema created with set_schema for direct descendant of Model. Does not retreive schema information from the database, see db_schema if you want that.

def schema
  @schema || (superclass.schema unless superclass == Model)
end

#set_schema(name = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Defines a table schema (see Schema::Generator for more information).

This is only needed if you want to use the create_table/create_table! methods. Will also set the dataset if you provide a name, as well as setting the primary key if you defined one in the passed block.

In general, it is a better idea to use migrations for production code, as migrations allow changes to existing schema. set_schema is mostly useful for test code or simple examples.

end
