Add support of spatial data types
Will pony support spatial data types?
In future - yes, but probably not too soon. Right now we are working hard on bringing PonyORM objects to frontend, so someone can transfer bunch of PonyORM objects to JavaScript and use them to build a rich web application. Then we plan to add support of PostgreSQL-specific datatypes (array, enum, json, hstore), support of analytic aggregated functions (SUM(...) OVER(...)), and full text search. The other extremely important task is support of migrations. So realistically I don't think we can add spatial data types before January 2016.
@kozlovsky it's Feb 2016 now. any progress on this issue?
We had no time to implement support of spatial data types yet, but our team of core developers just increased by 50%, so I expect that we can speed up significantly in 2016.
@kozlovsky thanks for the reply. I'm looking forward to the new feature.
It's been a long time since the request. PostGIS support is a much-needed requirement now.
Any updates on this?
