And what about constraint (primary and foreign keys) and things like
that. I know ":string" really mean "character varying" and I need the
equivalent of the "character" data type, which is not present in the
Rails's data type.

I hope to be wrong but another alternative would be to use the
"execute" command followed by the SQL query. Is  it possible to do so
as mentioned in this article?

(Yeah I know it's old but it can work on my project's migrations)
