Can it use an uuid type for uuid type?

[isgj]

The postgres uuid type is mapped to string. Is it possible to overwrite the mapped type with something like github.com/google/uuid.UUID?

You can use the types.replace directive in the configuration to use a UUID type that implement the Scanner and Valuer interfaces

Sorry, it would be helpful for noobs to sqlboiler to provide a concrete example of how to achieve this, considering uuid is a common postgres type.

edit: to elaborate, I've had a go at this and can't get it to work

Edit 2, figured this out but you should add this to the types guide, for anyone else that wants a global replacement of pg uuid:

[[types]]

[types.match]
db_type = "uuid"

[types.replace]
type = "uuid.UUID"

[types.imports]
third_party = ['"github.com/google/uuid"']
