Superseded by https://github.com/Atulin/NpgsqlSourceGenerators

Usage

1. Add the [NpgsqlEnum] attribute to selected enums

[NpgsqlEnum]
enum Animals
{
    Cat,
    Dog,
    Parrot,
    Tardigrade
}

2. Call MapPostgresEnums() on NpgsqlConnection.GlobalTypeMapper

public MyDbContext(DbContextOptions options) : base(options)
{
    NpgsqlConnection.GlobalTypeMapper.MapPostgresEnums(); 👈
}

3. Call RegisterPostgresEnums() on your ModelBuilder

protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder builder)
{
    base.OnModelCreating(builder);

    builder.RegisterPostgresEnums(); 👈
}
