Rails ActiveRecord Data Types

I usually curios to know about Data Types for ActiveRecord, but the Active Record Migration documentation itself does not have that information.

So, I do some Google search and here is the TL;DR.

The ActiveRecord data types available in Rails 6;

:primary_key
:string: short text
:text: long text
:integer: whole numbers [-4, 0, 9, 772]
:float: double-precision floating-point numbers [3244.90]
:decimal: high-precision floating-point numbers [3244.2342343789212]
:datetime
:time
:date
:binary: 1 / 0
:boolean: true or false

These data types are used in instances such as migrations.

def change
  create_table :categories do |t|
    t.string :title
    t.boolean :is_subcategory
    t.string :permalink
    t.timestamps
  end
end
