Hi! Is there somewhere on PA that you list the currently supported versions of software? For example, I'd like to know what is the latest supported versions of: - Python - Postgres - Django

It would also be nice to know what old versions are supported. Is there a page where this is documented? Thanks!

'batteries included'

Yup, that's a great starting point! Remember, though, you can also install newer (or older) modules yourself using pip. But anyway, that covers Django.

Regarding Python, which isn't on those lists -- we currently support 2.7.6, 3.3.6, 3.4.3, 3.5.2, and 3.6.0.

Regarding MySQL -- new databases are 5.6, older ones are 5.5.

Regarding Postgres -- we're on 9.4.

Thanks, guys!

• @giles Postgres 9.4 supports the JSON data type, right?
• @jgmdavies (thanks! I'm not super-familiar with the PA site but it would be nice if there were a place where these kinds of things were easy to find)

Yes I believe Postgres 9.4 supports JSON data types.

For searching for these kind of things, you could do a search within our forums and also go to the help pages.

No, this installation Postgres 9.4 do not support json. When I try to insert into table field date type json, I recive error 0A000 - feature_not_supported. :/

It works fine for me.

postgres=# create table books (id integer, data json);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# INSERT INTO books VALUES (1,
  '{ "name": "Book the First", "author": { "first_name": "Bob", "last_name": "White" } }');
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# SELECT id, data->>'name' AS name FROM books;
 id |      name
----+----------------
  1 | Book the First
(1 row)
