SchemaPlus
A collection of gems that extend ActiveRecord with automatic behaviors and advanced database features.
What is SchemaPlus?
SchemaPlus is a family of Ruby gems that extend ActiveRecord with automatic behaviors and advanced database features. It automates tasks like foreign key creation, validation generation from constraints, and association definitions, while adding support for PostgreSQL-specific features and database views. The project helps Rails developers write more concise and maintainable database schemas and models.
Ruby on Rails developers working with ActiveRecord who want to reduce boilerplate in migrations and models, and those needing advanced database features like PostgreSQL enums, deferrable foreign keys, or multi-schema support.
Developers choose SchemaPlus because it enforces DRY principles by automating repetitive tasks based on database schema, provides a modular set of gems for specific needs, and extends ActiveRecord with production-ready database features not available in core Rails.
