feat(medusa): Custom seed.json file for custom models

[herawais]

Hi
There should be a feature for seeding our custom database models, instead of the default ones,

Current Status:
Currently only these models are supported ,

Required Feature:
but there should be a way to define custom models based on the keys in seed.json file

@herawais Hello. Did you find the answer to your question? I'm also looking for an answer to this question(

[herawais]

unfortunately not,

@herawais thank you very much for your response. The only option I can imagine is when we want to make our demo data or just data at the beginning of the application. The answer is to use data insertion migrations.

Use medusa v2 and write or modify the seed.ts as per your need.

In medusa v2 you can find the seed script file under /src/scripts/seed.ts

Mr. @imash96 , I have the seed file. For example, I created several new models (custom models). Can I actually write or create a new source file and add my own model?
"size-measurement": [
{
"category": "top",
"size": "XS",
"chest": "83–86",
"waist": "71–74",
"hip": "82–85"
}
],

When I add my size dimension object to the default source file, it doesn't happen and my instance is not created.
In the bottom, i write my package config file.
