Trait diesel::associations::Identifiable [−] [src]

pub trait Identifiable {
    type Id: Hash + Eq;
    type Table: Table + for<'a> FindDsl<&'a Self::Id>;
    fn table() -> Self::Table;

    fn id(&self) -> &Self::Id;
}

Represents a struct which can be identified on a single table in the database. This must be implemented to use associations, and some features of updating.

Deriving

This trait can be automatically derived using diesel_codegen by adding #[derive(Identifiable)] to your struct. The primary key will be assumed to be a field and column called id. By default the table will be assumed to be the plural form of the struct name (using very dumb pluralization -- it just adds an s at the end). If your table name differs from that convention, or requires complex pluralization, it can be specified using #[table_name = "some_table_name"]. The inferred table name is considered public API and will never change without a major version bump.
