def initialize(adapter = nil, message: nil, table: nil, foreign_key: nil, target_table: nil, primary_key: nil)
  @adapter = adapter
  if table
    msg = <<-EOM.strip_heredoc
      Column `#{foreign_key}` on table `#{table}` has a type of `#{column_type(table, foreign_key)}`.
      This does not match column `#{primary_key}` on `#{target_table}`, which has type `#{column_type(target_table, primary_key)}`.
      To resolve this issue, change the type of the `#{foreign_key}` column on `#{table}` to be :integer. (For example `t.integer #{foreign_key}`).
    EOM
  else
    msg = <<-EOM
      There is a mismatch between the foreign key and primary key column types.
      Verify that the foreign key column type and the primary key of the associated table match types.
