No support for MySQL geometry data type field

[virtser]

I have a MySQL database with table which has the following field:
geolocation: DataTypes.GEOMETRY('POINT')

While looking into that filed with simple MySQL client it has the following value:
POINT(34.7787543 32.0708966)

But Lumber/Forest shows this field as empty value, which makes it useless to update or display geo location widget. 😢

Hey @virtser What do you want to see as an GEOMETRY type field on Forest? A Google map? Foretst supports "widgets" and definitively it makes sense to render correctly these type of fields.

Yes, definitely a Google map widget and allow to change position and save it back to database.

+1 for this, and even better if you can move the pin on the map to "correct" the lat lng
