Postgres array types

[robinsonkwame]

I noticed when inspecting types that the postgres array type is not supported. Are there plans to support it? Openapi has an array type which triggered this issue for me.

That's a good point – we don't use arrays for our use case at Better – but there's nothing fundamentally that stops from mapping it to Postgres.

Does this mean that this library doesn't support many-to-many relationships?

[erikbern]

json schemas don't support many-to-many, so yes that's right

Sorry, it's a tad absurd to me that full ID support exists but arrays are broken. Why not convert them to index-keyed dictionaries? That's what I've ended up doing. :man_shrugging:
