        Schema. Default: 'public'.

Given database table

CREATE TYPE user_state AS ENUM (
  'asleep',
  'awake'
);

CREATE TABLE users (
    id int4 NOT NULL,
    name varchar(255),
    state user_state,
    is_enabled bool NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE
);

Running schema-typegen -o ./entities.ts postgres://username:password@localhost:5432/database Will generate the following type definitions

enum UserState {
  asleep = 'asleep',
  awake = 'awake'
}

interface UserEntity {
  id: number;
  name: string | null;
  state: UserState | null;
  is_enabled: boolean;
}

Loading database config

from .env file

export $(grep -v '^#' .env | xargs) && schema-typegen -o ./entities.ts postgres://$DB_USERNAME:$DB_PASSWORD@$DB_HOST:$DB_PORT/$DB_NAME

from json file

schema-typegen -o ./entities.ts postgres://$(jq -r '.DB.USERNAME' config.json):$(jq -r '.DB.PASSWORD' config.json)@$(jq -r '.DB.HOST' config.json):$(jq -r '.DB.PORT' config.json)/$(jq -r '.DB.NAME' config.json)
