Primary key is of type integer in test environment. about activeuuid HOT 12 CLOSED

That's because you are creating test db from schema and not from migrations. Use sql schema, schema.rb doesn't support uuid fields

from activeuuid.

I use standard rails conventions when running my tests / specks.

Check out the repo then run

git clone PROJECT && 
cd PROJECT_DIR
bundle
rake db:create
rake db:migrate
rake

I like keeping things consistent and I'd prefer this to just work like all my other projects.
Do you have any suggestions and / or is there no way to fix this isssue withe schema.rb ?

from activeuuid.

Yeah, fixing schema dumper will help. But it is too much work

from activeuuid.

You mean fixing schema dumber in ActiveRecord or some part of it as part of this gem?

from activeuuid.

Exactly

from activeuuid.

No I mean do you have any idea where the base place for this fix is?

from activeuuid.

If I'd had, I'd perform this by myself. Unfortunately, the source of schema dumper is so shitty, so I'm afraid there is no place to do this and we have to patch big pieces of code for every rails version specifically. Which version do you use?

from activeuuid.

The project I'm working on is a green field rails 4 project.

Yes this is so strange the schema dumber total assumes that the id column is an auto increment integer column and just skips the definition entirely:

from activeuuid.

schema dumber

exactly

So if you want to fix this rather then use sql schema - you have to dig through all this mess

from activeuuid.

I guess I'll have to live with it ASIS and just work around it.

from activeuuid.

The schema dumper will hopefully be much better for handling these sorts of ID fields in Rails 5: rails/rails@3628025
