#primary_key ⇒ Object

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

  @primary_key
end

#primary_key=(value) ⇒ Object

Sets the name of the primary key column.

class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
  self.primary_key = "sysid"
end

You can also define the primary_key method yourself:

class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
  def self.primary_key
    "foo_" + super
  end
end
Project.primary_key # => "foo_id"
