Unknown database type enum requested, Doctrine\DBAL\Platforms\MariaDb1027Platform may not support it.

[Tolga Fıratoğlu]

Hello,
I have an enum in my table. So I added the following fix for the migration file. No problem in migration, but when I try to generate model using your library, I get an error.

Here's how I generate the model:

php artisan krlove:generate:model InteriorFeature --table-name=interior_feature

My fix for enum. By the help of this fix, I have no problem with migration:

public function __construct()
    {
        DB::getDoctrineSchemaManager()->getDatabasePlatform()->registerDoctrineTypeMapping('enum', 'string');
    }

Using this https://github.com/krlove/eloquent-model-generator#registring-custom-database-types and this
public function __construct() { DB::getDoctrineSchemaManager()->getDatabasePlatform()->registerDoctrineTypeMapping('enum', 'string'); }

Solved this issue for me

for fixed this issue, i create file with name eloquent_model_generator.php within config/ directory, and you just copy code below:

<?php

return [
    'model_defaults' => [
        // ...
       'db_types' => [
            'enum' => 'string',
        ],
    ],
];

        ],
    ],
];

Para los que hablen español, y no encuentren que onda, la respuesta de @gierg también jala en laravel 8, solo deben crear el archivo en la carpeta de config y poner lo que se indica
