Can I pass default value to rails generate migration?
rails-migrations, ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-3
Solution
You can't: https://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_migrations.html#column-modifiers
null and default cannot be specified via command line.
The only solution is to modify the migration after it's generated. It was the case in Rails 3, still the case in Rails 7
Problem
I want to know if I can pass a default value to the `rails g migration` command. Something like: ``` $ rails generate migration add_disabled_to_users disabled:boolean:false #where false is default value for disabled attribute ``` in order to generate: ``` class AddDisabledToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration def change add_column :users, :disabled, :boolean, default: false end end ```
