Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'postgres_ext'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install postgres_ext
Usage
Just require 'postgres_ext' and use ActiveRecord as you normally would! postgres_ext extends
ActiveRecord's data type handling and query methods in both Arel and
ActiveRecord.
Where are the datatypes from PostgresExt 1.x? ActiveRecord 4.x includes all the data types that PostgresExt added to ActiveRecord 3.2.x. We'll be adding more datatypes as we come across them.
