What you want is the C collation[1]. You can either:

  • have it during query (MyModel.order('name COLLATE "C"')),

  • create the column with C collation (t.string :my_column, :collation => "C" iirc),

  • or set default database collation (check either CREATE DATABASE
    documentation[2] or initdb[3]).
