Additional properties on JoinTable

Issue type:

[*] question [ ] bug report [ ] feature request [ ] documentation issue

Database system/driver:

[ ] cordova [ ] mongodb [ ] mssql [*] mysql / mariadb [ ] oracle [ ] postgres [ ] sqlite [ ] sqljs [ ] react-native

TypeORM version:

[*] latest [ ] @next [ ] 0.x.x (or put your version here)

Steps to reproduce or a small repository showing the problem:

Would it be possible to add additional columns on JoinTable to keep relation specific data.

export class ProductGroup {

    @PrimaryGeneratedColumn()
    id: number;

    @ManyToMany(() => ProductGroup)
    @JoinTable({
        name: "accessory",
        joinColumn: {
            name: "product",
            referencedColumnName: "id"
        },
        inverseJoinColumn: {
            name: "accessory",
            referencedColumnName: "id"
        },
    })
    accessories: ProductGroup[];

}

Here each product has many related products, and they need to be sorted according to specified order, for which I need to save additional field order on the accessory table.

Thanks.

Forget about JoinTable.

This is what I needed to hear.

I provided answer to your question. Now you need to try. You need to create two entities and make a one-to-many-many-to-one relations between them. Forget about JoinTable.
