Default UUID in Postgres

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I created a Postgres table with a UUID. I want the UUID to be populated by default.

Sample table:
CREATE TABLE "t"
(
  token uuid NOT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT unique_token UNIQUE (token)
);

I tried out this post:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2006-08/msg01452.php
CREATE TABLE t (id UUID DEFAULT 'uuid(4)' PRIMARY KEY);

and got an error that uuid(4) is undefined.

I then tried out:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/uuid-ossp.html
using uuid_generate_v4() for the default.

That didn't work as well.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks!
