Sasha 215f49efa5 feat(db-postgres): allow to store blocks in a JSON column (#12750)
Continuation of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6245.
This PR allows you to pass `blocksAsJSON: true` to SQL adapters and the
adapter instead of aligning with the SQL preferred relation approach for
blocks will just use a simple JSON column, which can improve performance
with a large amount of blocks.

To try these changes you can install `3.43.0-internal.c5bbc84`.

Payload Postgres Adapter

Vercel Postgres adapter for Payload.

Installation

npm install @payloadcms/db-vercel-postgres

Usage

Explicit Connection String

import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { vercelPostgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-vercel-postgres'

export default buildConfig({
  db: vercelPostgresAdapter({
    pool: {
      connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URI,
    },
  }),
  // ...rest of config
})

Automatic Connection String Detection

Have Vercel automatically detect from environment variable (typically process.env.POSTGRES_URL)

export default buildConfig({
  db: postgresAdapter(),
  // ...rest of config
})

More detailed usage can be found in the Payload Docs.
