StoreModel is a Ruby gem that wraps JSON-backed database columns (like jsonb) with ActiveModel-like classes using the Rails Attributes API. It lets you define typed attributes, validations, enums, and nested models for structured data stored inside a single JSON column.

Use cases

• wrap jsonb column in a rails model with typed attributes
• validate data stored in a json column
• replace verbose hash access on json attributes with model objects
• define nested models for json attributes in activerecord
• keep json column logic out of the parent activerecord model

When to choose

• you store structured, frequently-accessed data in a json/jsonb column in Rails
• you need validations, enums, or nested attributes for JSON-backed fields
• you want to follow single-responsibility by isolating JSON column logic in its own class

When to avoid

• you only read a few simple keys from a JSON column with no logic around them
• your project is not Ruby on Rails / ActiveRecord based
• the data would be better served by a separate relational table or document database
