Mapping Enums to custom type

[jacktattersall1]

for clarity, here is companion class constructor

class DocumentTemplateEntitiesCompanion
    extends UpdateCompanion<DocumentTemplateEntity> {
  final Value<int?> localDatabaseId;
  final Value<int> id;
  final Value<String> name;
  final Value<DocFileType> docFileType;
  final Value<bool> isDeleted;
  const DocumentTemplateEntitiesCompanion({
    this.localDatabaseId = const Value.absent(),
    this.id = const Value.absent(),
    this.name = const Value.absent(),
    this.docFileType = const Value.absent(),
    this.isDeleted = const Value.absent(),
  });

and a Value type has 2 methods of construction

/// Create a (present) value by wrapping the [value] provided.
  const Value(T value)
      : _value = value,
        present = true;

  /// Create an absent value that will not be written into the database, the
  /// default value or null will be used instead.
  const Value.absent()
      : _value = null,
        present = false;

Hi, we already discussed this as "type converters" in #60. We still discussing the best way to allow such things at the moment. If you have some ideas and want to discuss them, either post them here or on our Discord. 😊
