What are we using :
NPM:
- pg
- pg-hstore
- sequelize
- sequelize-cli ( for migrations pretty nifty )
So for adding any migrations which has an attribute with a dataType of HSTORE we need to enable it in the Postgresql database ( we need to find a way to automate this - thoughts ? ). Now this seemed to be a nice way so that whenever you create a database it enables HSTORE. Now this worked for me might not work for others.
sudo -u postgres psql template1 -c 'create extension hstore;' create the database with psql sudo -u postgres psql <database_name> -c 'create extension hstore;'
This is nice but there should be an automatic way for doing this ? Lets see ...
I found this to be very nice : link to gist
