ActiveID::Type::StringUUID

Defined in:: lib/active_id/type.rb

Overview

ActiveRecord’s attribute type which serializes UUIDs as strings.

UUIDs are serialized as 36 characters long strings (‘xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx`). In PostgreSQL, this representation is compatible with UUID data type, which is a unique feature of this RDBS. In other RDBSes, this attribute type can be used with textual data types (e.g. VARCHAR(36)), however BinaryUUID should be preferred when performance matters.
