end

Instance Attribute Details

#array_type ⇒ Object

The type of this array. May be nil if no type was given. If a type is provided, the array is automatically casted to this type when literalizing. This type is the underlying type, not the array type itself, so for an int4[] database type, it should be :int4 or ‘int4’

end

Instance Method Details

#op ⇒ Object

Wrap the PGArray instance in an ArrayOp, allowing you to easily use the PostgreSQL array functions and operators with literal arrays.

def op
  ArrayOp.new(self)
end

#sql_literal_append(ds, sql) ⇒ Object

Append the array SQL to the given sql string. If the receiver has a type, add a cast to the database array type.
