### Overview
This PR builds upon #5153, adding the ability to get a repository for
custom objects. The `entitySchema` is now generated for both standard
and custom objects based on metadata stored in the database instead of
the decorated `WorkspaceEntity` in the code. This change ensures that
standard objects with custom fields and relations can also support
custom objects.
### Implementation Details
#### Key Changes:
- **Dynamic Schema Generation:** The `entitySchema` for standard and
custom objects is now dynamically generated from the metadata stored in
the database. This shift allows for greater flexibility and
adaptability, particularly for standard objects with custom fields and
relations.
- **Custom Object Repository Retrieval:** A repository for a custom
object can be retrieved using `TwentyORMManager` based on the object's
name. Here's an example of how this can be achieved:
```typescript
const repository = await this.twentyORMManager.getRepository('custom');
/*
* `repository` variable will be typed as follows, ensuring that standard
fields and relations are properly typed:
* const repository: WorkspaceRepository<CustomWorkspaceEntity & {
* [key: string]: any;
* }>
*/
const res = await repository.find({});
```

This PR is a follow up of PR #5153.
This one introduce some changes on how we're querying composite fields.
We can do:
```typescript
export class CompanyService {
constructor(
@InjectWorkspaceRepository(CompanyObjectMetadata)
private readonly companyObjectMetadataRepository: WorkspaceRepository<CompanyObjectMetadata>,
) {}
async companies(): Promise<CompanyObjectMetadata[]> {
// Old way
// const companiesFilteredByLinkLabel = await this.companyObjectMetadataRepository.find({
// where: { xLinkLabel: 'MyLabel' },
// });
// Result will return xLinkLabel property
// New way
const companiesFilteredByLinkLabel = await this.companyObjectMetadataRepository.find({
where: { xLink: { label: 'MyLabel' } },
});
// Result will return { xLink: { label: 'MyLabel' } } property instead of { xLinkLabel: 'MyLabel' }
return companiesFilteredByLinkLabel;
}
}
```
Also we can now inject `TwentyORMManage` class to manually create a
repository based on a given `workspaceId` using
`getRepositoryForWorkspace` function that way:
```typescript
export class CompanyService {
constructor(
// TwentyORMModule should be initialized
private readonly twentyORMManager,
) {}
async companies(): Promise<CompanyObjectMetadata[]> {
const repository = await this.twentyORMManager.getRepositoryForWorkspace(
'8bb6e872-a71f-4341-82b5-6b56fa81cd77',
CompanyObjectMetadata,
);
const companies = await repository.find();
return companies;
}
}
```
