Enum data type

Kostas Botsas

Provide enum data type, or constraints on the multiple type.

Use case: define a specific set of values an array column can have.

Extremely important for me too for full type safety.

I think this is the only data type I require to be able to migrate from Prisma. In Prisma I would define an enum as follows:

enum OrderStatus {
  Pending
  Shipped
  Delivered
  Canceled
}
enum UserRole {
  Admin
  User
  Guest
}

It would also be cool if the enum could be mapped to values which could be useful if interfacing with other systems. Eg,

enum OrderStatus {
  Pending = 0
  Shipped = 1
  Delivered = 2
  Canceled = 3
}
enum UserRole {
  Admin = "admin"
  User = "user"
  Guest = "guest"
}
