bigint should be typed as "string" instead of "number" by default

[ellis]

node-postgres returns Bigint columns as strings instead of numbers (by default), because they can be larger than javascript numbers. Could you please modify schemats to use "string" for bigint columns instead of "number"?

it would be even better if configurable, because it's quite usual to override node-postgres parser settings in order to parse bigint as integer.
See #51

FYI, I patched the code here: ellis@e2defb8

Note that TypeScript 3.2 adds support for bigint type.
