Type :text is not in the dsl list of valid attributes

[davoclavo]

The list of attributes is missing the :text type.

activerecord-typedstore/lib/active_record/typed_store/dsl.rb

Line 17 in 55a1510

[:string, :integer, :float, :decimal, :datetime, :date, :boolean, :any].each do |type|

Right. But there is no point to add it because there would be no difference with the string type.

Feel free to reopen if I missed something.

I tried using it to have it automatically create a textarea when using it in a form.

You mean using simple_form or something like that?

[davoclavo]

Yes. Even with normal form_for method. If the attribute is a type :text it adds a textarea instead of a one line input.

Anyhow, if it is not gonna be used, there is a value check that it is using it, it should be removed:

activerecord-typedstore/lib/active_record/typed_store/column.rb

Line 41 in 55a1510

if type == :string || type == :text

[byroot]

Well, I guess I could add it, but form_for won't see the difference because I can't expose store field like real column otherwise it would mess with activerecord see #15 and #16.

I actually want to support that case, but have no idea how for now 😭

But Ok, I'll add an alias.

If you don't mind using master, the text type is in it.
