# Instantiates a new column for the table.
- # The +type+ parameter is normally one of the migrations native types,

- # <tt>:primary_key</tt>, <tt>:string</tt>, <tt>:text</tt>,
- # <tt>:integer</tt>, <tt>:bigint</tt>, <tt>:float</tt>, <tt>:decimal</tt>,
- # <tt>:datetime</tt>, <tt>:time</tt>, <tt>:date</tt>,
- # <tt>:binary</tt>, <tt>:boolean</tt>.
- #
- # You may use a type not in this list as long as it is supported by your
- # database (for example, "polygon" in MySQL), but this will not be database
- # agnostic and should usually be avoided.
- #
- # Available options are (none of these exists by default):
- # * <tt>:limit</tt> -
- # Requests a maximum column length. This is number of characters for a <tt>:string</tt> column
- # and number of bytes for <tt>:text</tt>, <tt>:binary</tt> and <tt>:integer</tt> columns.
- # * <tt>:default</tt> -
- # The column's default value. Use nil for NULL.
- # * <tt>:null</tt> -
- # Allows or disallows +NULL+ values in the column. This option could
- # have been named <tt>:null_allowed</tt>.
- # * <tt>:precision</tt> -
- # Specifies the precision for a <tt>:decimal</tt> column.
- # * <tt>:scale</tt> -
- # Specifies the scale for a <tt>:decimal</tt> column.
+ # See {connection.add_column}[rdoc-ref:ConnectionAdapters::SchemaStatements#add_column]
+ # for available options.
+ #
+ # Additional options are:
# * <tt>:index</tt> -
# Create an index for the column. Can be either <tt>true</tt> or an options hash.
#
- # Note: The precision is the total number of significant digits
- # and the scale is the number of digits that can be stored following
- # the decimal point. For example, the number 123.45 has a precision of 5
- # and a scale of 2. A decimal with a precision of 5 and a scale of 2 can
- # range from -999.99 to 999.99.
- #
- # Please be aware of different RDBMS implementations behavior with
- # <tt>:decimal</tt> columns:
- # * The SQL standard says the default scale should be 0, <tt>:scale</tt> <=
- # <tt>:precision</tt>, and makes no comments about the requirements of
- # <tt>:precision</tt>.
- # * MySQL: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..63], <tt>:scale</tt> [0..30].
- # Default is (10,0).
- # * PostgreSQL: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..infinity],

- # * SQLite2: Any <tt>:precision</tt> and <tt>:scale</tt> may be used.
- # Internal storage as strings. No default.
- # * SQLite3: No restrictions on <tt>:precision</tt> and <tt>:scale</tt>,
- # but the maximum supported <tt>:precision</tt> is 16. No default.
- # * Oracle: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..38], <tt>:scale</tt> [-84..127].
