What is the best practice to add a database index to a custom table?

Acuitus 8 months ago

I want to add indexes to a custom table (to speed up reports) but is there an upgrade-safe (and rebuiild safe!) way to do this?

i.e. is there a way to add a php file to define the index?

You should be able to follow the same guidelines that are here, just use your custom module's module name:

Does this allow us to add an index to the _cstm table if the fields are in the _cstm table?

Or does this only allow us to add an index to the main table for the module?
