Earlier this year, I had a discussion with Rails Core and they suggested I make a pull request. I did: https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/4347-add-foreign-key-support-to-migrations-and-schemarb-dump
I did not receive any feedback on my original request, so I went on maintaining github.com/matthuhiggins/foreigner. I would happy to make an update to the patch, if it will be considered by the Core team. While it is fruitless to debate the value of foreign keys to opponents and proponents, it should be noted that the update I offered has zero effect on those not using foreign keys. It's also worth suggesting that the initial version can start with no cascading options, so that all application logic is kept in the application, and the foreign keys act as a neutral constraint similar to NOT NULL. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
