optionaldeleteRule

deleteRule?: AnyString | cascade | no action | set null | set default

What to do when the target entity gets deleted.

optionalinheritedeager

eager?: boolean

Always load the relationship. Discouraged for use with to-many relations for performance reasons.

mysql only

optionalinheritedfieldName

fieldName?: string

Specify database column name for this property.

@see

optionalinheritedformula

formula?: string | (alias: string) => string

Set to map some SQL snippet for the entity.

@see

optionalinheritedgenerated

generated?: string | GeneratedColumnCallback<Owner>

For generated columns. This will be appended to the column type after the generated always clause.

optionalinheritedgetter

getter?: boolean

Set true to define the properties as getter. (virtual)

@example
@Property({ getter: true })
get fullName() {
  return this.firstName + this.lastName;
}

optionalinheritedgetterName

getterName?: keyof Owner

When defining a property over a method (not a getter, a regular function), you can use this option to point to the method name.

@example
@Property({ getter: true })
getFullName() {
  return this.firstName + this.lastName;
}

optionalinheritedgroups

groups?: string[]

Specify serialization groups for serialize() calls. If a property does not specify any group, it will be included, otherwise only properties with a matching group are included.

optionalinheritedhidden

hidden?: boolean

Set to true to omit the property when Serializing.

optionalinheritedhydrate

hydrate?: boolean

Set false to disable hydration of this property. Useful for persisted getters.

optionalinheritedignoreSchemaChanges

ignoreSchemaChanges?: (type | extra | default)[]

Set to avoid a perpetual diff from the Generator when columns are generated.

@see

https://mikro-orm.io/docs/defining-entities#sql-generated-columns

Explicitly specify index on a property.

optionalinversedBy

inversedBy?: (string & keyof Target) | (e: Target) => any

Point to the inverse side property name.

optionaljoinColumn

joinColumn?: string

Override the default database column name on the owning side (see Naming Strategy). This option is only for simple properties represented by a single column.

optionaljoinColumns

joinColumns?: string[]

Override the default database column name on the owning side (see Naming Strategy). This option is suitable for composite keys, where one property is represented by multiple columns.

optionalinheritedlazy

lazy?: boolean

Set to omit the property from the select clause for lazy loading.

@see

https://mikro-orm.io/docs/defining-entities#lazy-scalar-properties

optionalinheritedlength

length?: number

Set length of database column, used for datetime/timestamp/varchar column types for Generator. (SQL only)

optionalmapToPk

mapToPk?: boolean

Map this relation to the primary key value instead of an entity.

optionalinheritedname

name?: string

Alias for fieldName.

optionalinheritednullable

nullable?: boolean

Set column as nullable for Generator.

optionalinheritedonCreate

onCreate?: (entity: Owner, em: EntityManager<IDatabaseDriver<Connection>>) => any

Automatically set the property value when entity gets created, executed during flush operation.

Type declaration

optionalinheritedonUpdate

onUpdate?: (entity: Owner, em: EntityManager<IDatabaseDriver<Connection>>) => any

Automatically update the property value every time entity gets updated, executed during flush operation.

Type declaration

optionalownColumns

ownColumns?: string[]

When a part of a composite column is shared in other properties, use this option to specify what columns are considered as owned by this property. This is useful when your composite property is nullable, but parts of it are not.

optionalinheritedpersist

persist?: boolean

Set false to define Property.

optionalinheritedprecision

precision?: number

Override the default database column name on the target entity (see Naming Strategy). This option is suitable for composite keys, where one property is represented by multiple columns.

optionalinheritedreturning

returning?: boolean

Add the property to the returning statement.

optionalinheritedruntimeType

runtimeType?: string

Runtime type of the property. This is the JS type that your property is mapped to, e.g. string or number, and is normally inferred automatically via reflect-metadata. In some cases, the inference won't work, and you might need to specify the runtimeType explicitly - the most common one is when you use a union type with null like foo: number | null.

optionalinheritedscale

scale?: number

Set scale of database column to represents the number of digits after the decimal point. (SQL only)

optionalinheritedserializedName

serializedName?: string

Specify name of key for the serialized value.

@Property({ setter: true })
set address(value: string) {
    this._address = value.toLocaleLowerCase();
}

optionalinheritedstrategy

Override the default loading strategy for this property. This option has precedence over the global loadStrategy, but can be overridden by FindOptions.strategy.

optionalinheritedtrackChanges

Set false to disable change tracking on a property level.
