I have no idea how to add the proper labels to this PR, it looks like the permissions aren't set up to allow me to.

@nsaccente, thanks for working on this!
This works, but could you please add a test?

Sure. I'll try to get that done sometime this week.

I've been fighting with getting the tests to work. I've been able to get things to pass in some versions of python, but not others. Any guidance on how to run these CI tests locally?

I'm seeing that this assumes all Literal values are strings, so a model like this:

class Hero(SQLModel, table=True):
    id: Optional[int] = Field(default=None, primary_key=True)
    name: str = Field(unique=True)
    weakness: Literal[1, 2, 3]

...would still create the column in the DB as a string, not as an integer. 🤔

Things are getting complex.. We can easily add special cases for Literal[1, 2, 3] or Literal[True, False] to create column with proper type.

The question is, do we expect any kind of validation for these values?
Our database column type is just CHAR or INTEGER, so, database will not enforce the value to be correct against Literal[1, 2, 3] type. If we have the value 42 in database, it can break user's code in a very tricky way one day
