UR::Da...tColumn(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

UR::DataSource::RDBMS::FkConstraintColumn — the metadata bestie for a data source's foreign keys 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so listen. This class is literally the glow-up of the column linkages that make up a foreign key. Like, a foreign key isn't just one vibe, it's a whole squad of column connections, and each instance of this class is one of those connections. Iconic behavior, honestly. 💅

Every single instance carries around these four things:

• column_name — the source, aka where the foreign key points from. This is the main character of the relationship. ✨
• r_column_name — the remote column name, aka where the foreign key points to. (The original docs spell it "fireign" and we are obsessed with the typo, but it's just foreign, promise. 🙈)
• the source table name — the table it's pointing from, no cap.
• the remote table name — the table it's pointing at, fr fr.

So yeah, it's giving "matchmaker for tables" energy. 🎀 One instance = one column linkage = one tiny little string in the big beautiful web of your foreign key. Not me being emotional about database schemas at 2am 😭
