The table version
already as an author
column defined. I'm trying to reuse/transform this column to be a foreign_key to the new user
table so that a version belongs_to
a user via the column author
I've added a migration which delete and add back the author column: the column is currently a string type and can't be converted automatically to an integer that's why we need to delete it first.
alter table(:versions) do
remove :author
add :author, references(:users, column: :id)
end
The `version schema is now:
schema "versions" do
belongs_to :comment, Comment
belongs_to :user, User, foreign_key: :author
timestamps()
end
And user
:
schema "users" do
field :login, :string
field :user_id, :integer
field :avatar_url, :string
field :html_url, :string
has_many :comments, Comment, foreign_key: :deleted_by
has_many :versions, Version, foreign_key: :author
timestamps()
end
However when creating a new version the links doesn't seem to be right has a user_id
column is added and the author column doesn't seems to be linked to the user table
I'm looking a bit more at the foreign_key
option to see if I missed a step
As a user of gh-backup I want to be able to identify who has written the versions of comments So that I know who to hold responsible for them
