Type "regclass"

See original GitHub issue

This type is specific to table relations and casting to OIDs for internal relations. I believe this type is used by TypeORM for the relationship decorators.

Is there a possibility of this being implemented in the future?

Error for reference:

Ah ! The important bit is UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning … this is fixed in pg-mem@1.4.3 … its just a warning, but agreed, this was not supposed to be here (nor related to any test).

FYI, this is the fix and here is how it is tested

@MirrorBytes FYI I’ve created a unit test that matches your use case.

And we’re almost there… oid is now supported (1.4.1), but on delete cascade is not. I’ll implement that 😃
