Issue is that I can't change a column type to 'Text'

This is the error I am seeing:

(See full trace by running task with --trace) Rake script I'm using to test DataMapper: 
https://gist.github.com/818143 It seems as though the change_column method within the 
TableModifier class isn't converting the column change statement to 
MySQL correctly. Other seemingly related errors are that if I try to 
convert a column to a String of longer length I get this: DarkBook:playground Justin$ rake migrate_up

ALTER TABLE people ALTER COLUMN name TYPE String 
 

~ You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that 
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use

According to what I've read about MySQL, "ALTER TABLE people ALTER 
COLUMN name TYPE String" is not a valid MySQL query command. TYPE 
shouldn't be there and String should be converted to VARCHAR.

Looking inside the change_column m开发者_如何学运维ethod I see it's just a straight 
pass through of the type I'm providing. This is making me think 
perhaps I'm not supposed to be calling the change_column method 
directly?

Once I get this figured out and I'm well on my way, I'm documenting 
this stuff as figuring out DataMapper's migration api has been 
hellish.


change_column isn't particularly bright. The current implementation is:

def change_column(name, type, opts = {})
  @statements << "ALTER TABLE #{quoted_table_name} ALTER COLUMN #{quote_column_name(name)} TYPE #{type}"
end

Meaning you need to specify the underlying sql type rather than a DataMapper type. To wit:

modify_table :people do
  change_column :name, 'text'
end

I will update the documentation to include this.


This is a work around I found: https://gist.github.com/819792
