Struct ColumnDef 

pub struct ColumnDef { /* private fields */ }

Schema metadata for a single column: SQL type, nullability, defaults, constraints, and other DDL-level options.

Returned by ColumnTrait::def and used by SeaORM’s schema builder to generate CREATE TABLE / ALTER TABLE statements. Most fields are set declaratively via attributes on a #[derive(DeriveEntityModel)] Model; the chainable methods below cover the cases that need to be configured at runtime.

Implementations

impl ColumnDef

pub fn unique(self) -> Self

Marks the column as UNIQUE

pub fn seaography_ignore(self) -> Self

pub fn default<T>(self, default: T) -> Self

where T: Into<SimpleExpr>,
