new comments about JSON on the "datasets as git repos" thought experiment: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18WDIS8hrFJvMJBcnRuQ8NfD-VxGq32vJ9WwlEgyyWZs/edit?usp=sharing |

pdurbin: I store json in postgresql. I think varchar if pre native json support, native if using modern postgres |
14:34 |
|
pdurbin |
skay: nice! |

since I have a django app for the moment, I use some django libraries to do so django jsonfield (or perhaps django json_field) |
14:35 |
|
skay |
if you use a key-value store you could also store json in there |
14:35 |
|
pdurbin |
skay: how do you like the json feature of postgres, in general? |
14:35 |
|
pdurbin |
(I've never played with it) |

skay |
basically, you can decide how to serialize it and then stuff it somewhere, even in a file system |
14:36 |

to be honest, I wish I had time to play with it. at some point I will want to have fancier searchers or what not and take advantage of queries but for now I have to make buttons pretty |

skay |
we need more developers |
14:36 |
|
skay |
I'd like some front end and ux people |
14:37 |
|
skay |
so that I can focus on other areas |
14:38 |
|
skay |
anyway, it's cool that postgres allows one to store json like it does, it's like I get to cheat a tiny bet and have a small key-value store |
14:38 |
|
skay |
bit not bet |

pdurbin |
right. and postgres will support bson soon (binary json), which is what mongo uses. so do you even need mongo? ;) |

pdurbin: "collection of tools to let /etc be stored in a git, mercurial, darcs, or bzr repository." |
16:10 |
|
skay |
pdurbin: "It tracks file metadata that revison control systems do not normally support, but that is important for /etc, such as the permissions of /etc/shadow." |
