Make LastInsertIDInitializable public about fluent-mysql-driver HOT 2 CLOSED

Why do you want to use a custom type for the ID? I can see this breaking a lot of Fluent, including the relationships and querying since Fluent won't know what underlying DB type to map to in the encoder/decoder

from fluent-mysql-driver.

The main reason is that it is easy to misuse if all models have same ID type.
The IDs of ModelA and ModelB is similar but they are different. ModelA.find(idOfModelB, on: db) is totally incorrect operation.
I want to forbid it with type system.

That's correct. I didn't noticed simply making LastInsertIDInitializable public causes several problem.
There's no restriction LastInsertIDInitializable will be encoded to integer.
As far as I know there's no way in type system to assure the underlying type so protocol approach won't work.

The only way that can achieve my demand is having ID type in this repository but it's going too far.
I give up this issue.
If someone has good idea, please tell me.
