HStoreField can't adapt type 'dict'

[Vedran Čačić]

I know it's very early release, but I'd expect the example from the docs to work. I started playing with HStoreField from django.contrib.postgres.fields, and get the error above. Model Dog is copied verbatim from https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/postgres/fields/#querying-hstorefield, and then in the shell, 

    >>> from atest.models import Dog

    >>> Dog.objects.create(name='Rufus', data={'breed': 'labrador'})

    ...

        return self.cursor.execute(sql, params)

    django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: can't adapt type 'dict'

At that moment,

    sql = 'INSERT INTO "atest_dog" ("name", "data") VALUES (%s, %s) RETURNING "atest_dog"."id"'

    params = ('Rufus', {'breed': 'labrador'})

So, everything should be completely normal - yet, HStoreField somehow doesn't know how to accept dict, despite docs saying that it's exactly what it should accept. Does anyone have any advice? Has anyone tried to do something with HStoreField?

Collin,

Your answers to so many questions lately have been very
helpful.  Thanks!

Any reason you don't include the original question with your
reply?  Either by top-posting, or by quoting an excerpt?

Would provide context to your answers, making them more
useful, especially to those of us reading them as email, not
at the Google Groups Web site.

Thanks!

I like to keep the emails as short as possible :)

I'll start doing that.
