Can I pass default value to rails generate migration?

Question

I want to know if I can pass a default value to the rails g migration command. Something like:

 $ rails generate migration add_disabled_to_users disabled:boolean:false #where false is default value for disabled attribute 

in order to generate:

class AddDisabledToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration   def change     add_column :users, :disabled, :boolean, default: false   end end

You can't: https://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_migrations.html#column-modifiers

null and default cannot be specified via command line.

The only solution is to modify the migration after it's generated. It was the case in Rails 3, still the case in Rails 6
