+/// # Limitations
+///
+/// This derive macros can only be used on enums.

+/// # Macro Attributes
+///
+/// All macro attributes listed below have to be annotated in the form of `#[sea_orm(attr = value)]`.
+///
+/// - For enum
+///     - `rs_type`: Define `ActiveEnum::Value`
+///         - Possible values: `String`, `i8`, `i16`, `i32`, `i64`, `u8`, `u16`, `u32`, `u64`
+///         - Note that value has to be passed as string, i.e. `rs_type = "i8"`
+///     - `db_type`: Define `ColumnType` returned by `ActiveEnum::db_type()`
+///         - Possible values: all available enum variants of `ColumnType`, e.g. `String(None)`, `String(Some(1))`, `Integer`
+///         - Note that value has to be passed as string, i.e. `db_type = "Integer"`
+///     - `enum_name`: Define `String` returned by `ActiveEnum::name()`
+///         - This attribute is optional with default value being the name of enum in camel-case
+///         - Note that value has to be passed as string, i.e. `db_type = "Integer"`
+///
+/// - For enum variant
+///     - `string_value` or `num_value`:
+///         - For `string_value`, value should be passed as string, i.e. `string_value = "A"`
+///         - For `num_value`, value should be passed as integer, i.e. `num_value = 1` or `num_value = 1i32`
+///         - Note that only one of it can be specified, and all variants of an enum have to annotate with the same `*_value` macro attribute
