How do I create a TEXT column with Go Gorm

Question

I am trying to create a TEXT column using Gorm ORM but the column is still created as VARCHAR(225). Below is the struct I want to migrate to a table.

type TextDump struct {
  *gorm.Model
  Title string `gorm:"varchar(50)" json:"title" binding:"required"`
  Text string `gorm:"text" json:"text" binding:"required"`
  Count int `json:"count"`
  ChannelID int `json:"channel_id" binding:"required"`
}

The text column is created as VARCHAR instead of TEXT.

You should use the tag name type before the column type:

type TextDump struct {
  *gorm.Model
  Text string `gorm:"type:text"`
  // ...
}
