How to seed the database?

[alanmatiasdev]

Since upgrading typeorm to version 0.3, I'm looking for an alternative to seed the database. I saw in the README of the lib, which I can use for this purpose, but I didn't find an example of how to do it. Is it possible to do this with this lib?

Hey @bralandealmeida,
the seeding functionality is very minimalistic at the moment and poor documented, but i will enhance it capabilities and documentation.

Hey @bralandealmeida,
the typeorm-extension version v2.1.0 should provide the seeding functionality to a certain extent by now.
Please let me know, if something is still missing in your eyes or can be improved.

@tada5hi does the seeding functionality work for items like monodb? If so, is it possible to provide an example? I keep getting EntityMetadataNotFoundError when using mongodb but not when using postgresql

i have not implemented support for mongodb yet 😅 , as there has been no demand for it. But I will take care of it and also support mongodb ✌️ ☺️ .

@zlavoie can you verify if v2.6.2 is working for you ?
