Compare with:

drop_table(table_name, options = {})

Drops a table from the database.

Although this command ignores options and the block if one is given, it can be helpful to provide these in a migration’s change method so it can be reverted. In that case, options and the block will be used by create_table.

Parameters

table_name req
options opt = {}
