If you are trying to create new uitype just to store json then no need to create new uitype for it. You can create new text field to store json value in database

  • use json_encode to store json in newly created text field
  • use json_decode while fetching the value from db and use whenever needed.

And if you still want to create new uitype then you can follow the description and steps given here
