add_exclusion_constraint(table_name, expression, **options)

Adds a new exclusion constraint to the table. expression is a String representation of a list of exclusion elements and operators.

add_exclusion_constraint :products, "price WITH =, availability_range WITH &&", using: :gist, name: "price_check"

generates:

ALTER TABLE "products" ADD CONSTRAINT price_check EXCLUDE USING gist (price WITH =, availability_range WITH &&)

The options hash can include the following keys:

:name: The constraint name. Defaults to excl_rails_<identifier>.
:deferrable: Specify whether or not the exclusion constraint should be deferrable. Valid values are false or :immediate or :deferred to specify the default behavior. Defaults to false.

add_unique_constraint(table_name, column_name = nil, **options)

Adds a new unique constraint to the table.

add_unique_constraint :sections, [:position], deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_position"

generates:

ALTER TABLE "sections" ADD CONSTRAINT unique_position UNIQUE (position) DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED

If you want to change an existing unique index to deferrable, you can use :using_index to create deferrable unique constraints.

add_unique_constraint :sections, deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_position", using_index: "index_sections_on_position"

The options hash can include the following keys:

:name: The constraint name. Defaults to uniq_rails_<identifier>.
:deferrable: Specify whether or not the unique constraint should be deferrable. Valid values are false or :immediate or :deferred to specify the default behavior. Defaults to false.
:using_index: To specify an existing unique index name. Defaults to nil.
