Question

Currently I am using something like this:

dbCreateTable db "MyTable" [ ("Col1", (StringT, False)), ("Col2", (StringT, False)) ]

which works fine, but i’d like to make “Col1” the primary key. Do i need to go back to raw SQL?

edit:
This still seems to hold:
“The part of creating a database from Haskell itself is not very
useful, for example you cannot express foreign- and primary keys,
indexes and constraints. Even the most simple database will need
one of these.”

As the edit notes, HaskellDB is not very good at creating tables at the moment. It’s best to build a database first, and then extract the info.
