I found some couple of packages to implement PostgreSQL HStore in Django from djangopackages.org. The most stared and most forked package was last updated in March 2, 2017 [DJANGO-HSTORE]. I think it is not maintained regularly. But as it at the top of the list I am confused about that should I use it in my project or there is a better option for me.

Which is the best and handy way to implement PostgreSQL HStore in Django?

It's been a while that django added bult-in support for hstore: docs

  • wow! There is a built-in support? It will be more handy! But please clear my another confusion. If there is a built-in support for this then why there exist entire separate packages (like [django-hstore](https://github.com/djangonauts/django-hstore)) for this task? – A T M Ragib Raihan Sep 15 '19 at 10:09
  • hstore was recently added to django (not very recent but older versions didn't have that) so you had to use 3rd party packages – aliva Sep 15 '19 at 10:57

    You may want to consider Django's built in support for JSONB for future flexibility: https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2016/07/14/choosing-nosql-hstore-json-jsonb/ – FlipperPA Sep 15 '19 at 11:13
