Generic update with mapping in Slick - scala

Question

I'm writing a CRUD app using Slick, and I want my update queries to only update a specific set of columns and I use .map().update() for that.
I have a function that returns a tuple of fields that can be updated in my table definition (def writableFields). And I have a funciton that returns a tuple of values to write there extracted from a case class.
It works fine, but it's annoying to create a repo and write the whole update function for every table. I want to create a generic form of this function, and make my table and it's companion object to extend some trait. But I cannot come up with correct type definitions.
Slick expects output of map() to be somehow compatible with the output of update. And I don't know how to make a generic type for tuples.
Is it even possible to accomplish? Or is there an alternative way to limit code duplication? Ideally I want to avoid writing Repos at all and just either instantiate a generic class or call a generic method.
object ProjectsRepo extends BaseRepository[Projects, Project] {
protected val query = lifted.TableQuery[Projects]
def update(id: Long, c: Project): Future[Option[Project]] = {
val q = filterByIdQuery(id).map(_.writableFields)
.update(Projects.mapFormToTable(c))
(db run q).flatMap(
affected =>
if (affected > 0) {
findOneById(id)
} else {
Future(None)
}
)
}
}
class Projects(tag: Tag) extends Table[Project](tag, "projects") with IdentifiableTable[Long] {
val id = column[Long]("id", O.PrimaryKey, O.AutoInc)
val title = column[String]("title")
val slug = column[String]("slug")
val created_at = column[Timestamp]("created_at")
val updated_at = column[Timestamp]("updated_at")
def writableFields =
(
title,
slug
)
def readableFields =
(
id,
created_at,
updated_at
)
def allFields = writableFields ++ readableFields // shapeless
def * = allFields <> (Projects.mapFromTable, (_: Project) => None)
}
object Projects {
def mapFormToTable(c: Project): FormFields =
(
c.title,
c.slug
)
}
