A Laravel package that adds many PostgreSQL-specific features missing from Laravel's database layer, which normally targets the lowest common denominator across databases. It extends migrations, schema builder, and query capabilities with PostgreSQL functionality like advanced indexes, domain types, and specialized column types.

Use cases

• use postgres-specific column types in laravel migrations
• create partial and functional indexes in laravel
• run zero downtime migrations with postgres
• use full text search with laravel and postgresql
• create materialized views from laravel migrations
• use array and range columns in eloquent

When to choose

• you use Laravel with PostgreSQL and need features Laravel's schema builder lacks
• you need zero-downtime index creation or advanced index types
• you want PostgreSQL-specific column types like arrays, ranges, or hstore in migrations

When to avoid

• you use a database other than PostgreSQL
• your app sticks to Laravel's built-in cross-database feature set
• you don't use Laravel or Eloquent
