DbValue

Interface for enum classes that need custom numeric mapping to the database.

By default, enum properties are stored as their ordinal value. Implement this interface to use a custom integer value instead.

Usage

enum class Status(override val dbValue: Int) : DbValue {
    ACTIVE(1),
    INACTIVE(5),
    BANNED(99)
}

When reading from the database, Stormify looks up the enum entry whose dbValue matches the stored integer. If no match is found, nullable properties receive null; non-null properties throw an exception.
