postgis types

See original GitHub issue

Hi, First of all; great lib. It’s super useful.

Not unlike many people I suppose, I’m using Postgis for geo-based stuff and it seems the Postgis types are not supported, like geography(Point,4326) , which is a game-stopper, unfortunately

Do you plan to add support for these types, maybe beginning with the most popular ones? Or is there a way to map unknown types to whatever TS type you like?

Thanks in advance.

It seems the postgis types appear in the pg_type table, at the geography type I’m looking for.

Would you take a PR for this type only? Then maybe I’ll PR in more types as I get the hang of it.

Ah, you mean if the postgis types are provided in the pg_type table?
