A Clojure library designed to let jdbc talk the PostgresSQL json type.
(ns your-namespace.foo
(:require [postgre-types.json :refer [add-json-type]]))
(add-json-type f-write-json f-read-json)
;; from now on jdbc knows how to deal with the PostgreSQL json type.
You can also add jsonb with the same interface.
(ns your-namespace.foo
(:require [postgre-types.json :refer [add-jsonb-type]]))
(add-jsonb-type f-write-json f-read-json)
;; from now on jdbc knows how to deal with the PostgreSQL jsonb type.
Please note that you need to pass two function to add-json-type.
The first (f-write-json) is the function that providden the data structure return a json rappresentation of such structure, the second (f-read-json) is the function that providen the json return the correct data structure.
Practical examples of such structure could be cheshire.core/generate-string and cheshire.core/parse-string or also clj-json.core/generate-string and clj-json.core/parse-string or also clojure.data.json/write-str and clojure.data.json/read-str.
Very basic example is providen in the test.
To run the test you need to have a Postgres instance running.
Then you should create a database, call it test.
Finally create an user, call also the user test and give a password to the user, give the password test.
You can run those command in order:
createdb test # create the database
sudo -u postgres createuser test -d -P # create the user
# type `test` two times to create the passwordPlease note that the comand sudo -u postgres createuser test -d -P is pretty Ubuntu specific, if it doesn't work you should just try to create a new user for your Postgres.
