TypeORM+Postgres: values in nullable columns deleted after server restart?

Question

Any idea why columns defined as nullable in TypeORM have their values deleted after every (nodemon) server restart? Is this expected behaviour?

After restart:

The column definition:

      @Column({ nullable: true }) // TypeORM decorator
      @Field(_type => Number, { nullable: true })  // TypeGraphQL decorator
      rating: Rating;  // for reference: type Rating = 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

I had a similar problem, with nullable columns. Deleted dist / build folder fixed it!
