The official documentation can be found here.

Does spring boot takes enums as an integer – Postgresql

This is my Entity Role class

@Entity
@AllArgsConstructor
@NoArgsConstructor
@Data
public class Role implements GrantedAuthority {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    private Integer id;

    @Column()
    private RoleName roleName;

    @Override
    public String getAuthority() {
        return roleName.name();
    }
}

And this is my RoleName class


public enum RoleName {
    ROLE_USER,
    ROLE_ADMIN,
    ROLE_DIRECTOR
}

If I look at the database I see that type of role_name column is integer????
And when I’m writhing a query

insert into role(id, role_name)
values(1, 'ROLE_USER'),
      (2, 'ROLE_ADMIN'),
      (3, 'ROLE_DIRECTOR');

it’s giving me error message "invalid syntax for type integer: "ROLE_USER"
Can you help me how I can solve this issue and why role_name column is an integer when I give its type enum
This is an error message

    Your role_name is an integer because you didn’t create it to be a string.

    If you want your enum value in your database to be a string you have to add this annotation to your field

    @Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
@Column
private RoleName roleName;

    Changing below three steps to resolve

    Change your database

    ALTER TABLE role MODIFY COLUMN role_name ENUM('ROLE_USER','ROLE_ADMIN','ROLE_DIRECTOR');

    and then try to insert into database

    INSERT INTO role(id, role_name)   
VALUES (1,'ROLE_USER'),(2, 'ROLE_ADMIN', 3),(3, 'ROLE_DIRECTOR');

    and last but not the least, change your entity column

    @Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
@Column(name="role_name")
private RoleName roleName;
