Add support for ENUMs for cockroachdb #8039
Description
Feature Description
CockroachDB supports enums very similarly to how Postgres does. The TypeORM driver for CockroachDB should recognize that.
The Problem
Currently, TypeORM does not recognize enum as a supported type for CockroachDB, so this feature is not available to users.
The Solution
Support enums for CockroachDB just as they are for Postgres. See 43e52c5 for initial PG enum support as well as the current code.
Considered Alternatives
Use string constants,
