Is JSONB + Postgres still a viable way of storing varying attributes?

• jsonb_accessor

  10 1,081 6.5 Ruby

  Adds typed jsonb backed fields to your ActiveRecord models.

  

I use both https://github.com/madeintandem/jsonb_accessor and https://github.com/DmitryTsepelev/store_model for storing different types of JSONB data in my Rails app. jsonb_accessor is great for lightweight, non-queryable('ish) fields, and StoreModel is great for mapping JSON documents to model-type records.

• StoreModel

  6 924 6.9 Ruby

  Work with JSON-backed attributes as ActiveRecord-ish models

• attr_json

  7 509 6.8 Ruby

  Serialized json-hash-backed ActiveRecord attributes, super smooth

I myself maintain one solution meant for rails attributes stored in a json column, at https://github.com/jrochkind/attr_json

• store_attribute

  2 354 5.4 Ruby

  ActiveRecord extension which adds typecasting to store accessors

There are some other gems that can do similar things (each with somewhat different design and possibilities) including https://github.com/madeintandem/jsonb_accessor , https://github.com/DmitryTsepelev/store_model , and https://github.com/palkan/store_attribute
