Add hstore field type for mappings. #7

Closed molind closed 11 years ago

molind commented 11 years ago

Hello,

I'm working on map renderer and a lot of data processing happens when data is already imported. One of features i really like to see - is hstore column with all tags of some geometry.

Is it possible to add field type "tags_hstore" or something like that to conserve all tags from original data?

No, sorry. HStore is not supported.

Ok. I'll fork and try to add this feature myself. Is there any hidden difficulty in architecture with HStores, or you just don't need it?

Please check out my own fork, it's more recent: https://github.com/olt/imposm3 But be aware that a lot of parts are still work in progress.

I have no use for it.

You need to make sure that the mapping will not filter out any unknown tags.
