1. 11.x core/lib/Drupal/Core/Database/SchemaDefinition/Column.php \Drupal\Core\Database\SchemaDefinition\Column::__construct()

Constructor.

Parameters

string $name: The column name.

?ColumnType $type: (Optional) The column data type, generic. Each database will map this to its own definition. This argument is mandatory unless $dbSpecificExtra is specified. See \Drupal\Core\Database\SchemaDefinition\ColumnType for allowed values.

?string $description: (Optional) A string in non-markup plain text describing this field and its purpose. References to other tables should be enclosed in curly brackets. For example, the users_data table 'uid' field description might contain "The {users}.uid this record affects.".

?bool $serialize: (Optional) A boolean indicating whether the field will be stored as a serialized string. If NULL, it is not specified. Defaults to NULL.

?ColumnSize $size: (Optional) The column data size. This is a hint about the largest value the column will store. See \Drupal\Core\Database\SchemaDefinition\ColumnSize for allowed values.

?bool $notNull: (Optional) If true, no NULL values will be allowed in this database column. If false, NULL values will be allowed. If NULL, it is not specified. Defaults to NULL.

StringValue|IntValue|FloatValue|NullValue|null $default: (Optional) The field's default value.

?int $length: (Optional) The maximum length of a type 'char', 'varchar' or 'text' field. Ignored for other field types.

?bool $unsigned: (Optional) A boolean indicating whether a type 'int', 'float' and 'numeric' only is signed or unsigned. If NULL, it is not specified. Defaults to NULL.

?int $precision: (Optional) Mandatory for type 'numeric' fields, indicates the precision (total number of significant digits). Ignored for other field types.

?int $scale: (Optional) Mandatory for type 'numeric' fields, indicates the scale (decimal digits right of the decimal point). Ignored for other field types.

?bool $binary: (Optional) A boolean indicating that MySQL should force 'char', 'varchar' or 'text' fields to use case-sensitive binary collation. This has no effect on other database types for which case sensitivity is already the default behavior. If NULL, it is not specified. Defaults to NULL.

array<string,array<string,mixed>>|null $dbSpecificExtra: (Optional) If you need to use a column type not included in the officially supported list of types above, you can specify a type for each database backend. Specify this as an associative array having the database type ('mysql', 'sqlite', 'pgsql', 'oracle', etc.) as the key, and an array of extra information <string,mixed> as the value. If NULL, it is not specified. Defaults to NULL.
