Extensions, patch v17
Dimitri Fontaine <dimitri@2ndquadrant.fr> — 2010-12-12T20:50:41Z
Hi, Here's the latest extension's patch. The only item with still some work to be done on it is the regression tests support: we're not aiming to full coverage is my understanding, and installing contribs goes a long way towards testing extensions. Do we want more? If so, please detail what exactly. What's in v17: - 9700 lines of context diff 226 files changed, 4919 insertions(+), 326 deletions(-) - extension.control.in cleanup This file is no longer supported nor mentioned in the docs. The version property of the extension.control file has to be managed there directly, we no longer offer any support for using any existing way to obtain it from the extension's Makefile. - psql integration rework \dx list installed extensions \dx[+] [PATTERN] list extension's objects \dX [PATTERN] list installed and available extensions dim=# \dx List of extensions Schema | Name | Version | Description --------+---------------+----------+---------------------------------------------------------------- utils | adminpack | 9.1devel | Administrative functions for PostgreSQL utils | cube | 9.1devel | data type for representing multidimensional cubes utils | earthdistance | 9.1devel | calculating great circle distances on the surface of the Earth utils | hstore | 9.1devel | storing sets of key/value pairs utils | isn | 9.1devel | data types for the international product numbering standards utils | lo | 9.1devel | managing Large Objects (6 rows) dim=# \dx lo Objects in extension "lo" Object Class | Object Description --------------+--------------------------------- pg_extension | extension lo pg_type | type utils.lo pg_proc | function utils.lo_oid(utils.lo) pg_proc | function utils.lo_manage() (4 rows) dim=# \dx+ lo Objects in extension "lo" Object OID | Object ClassOID | Object Class | Object Description ------------+-----------------+--------------+--------------------------------- 16388 | 3996 | pg_extension | extension lo 16389 | 1247 | pg_type | type utils.lo 16390 | 1255 | pg_proc | function utils.lo_oid(utils.lo) 16391 | 1255 | pg_proc | function utils.lo_manage() (4 rows) Regards, -- Dimitri Fontaine http://2ndQuadrant.fr PostgreSQL : Expertise, Formation et Support -

Dimitri tells me there's a V18 of this patch due real soon now. That may very well be ready for a committer, but even if that's the case it's going to take them some time to consume what was at last count an almost 10K line long context diff. In the interest of closing this CF out without further schedule overrun, I'm going to mark this as returned for now. Extensions are such a major improvement for PostgreSQL that I certainly hope review and eventual commit for 9.1 continues during or before the next CF. Both the multiple dependency patches that have been committed in the last month and the steady flow of updates to this one are good signs of progress. -- Greg Smith 2ndQuadrant US greg@2ndQuadrant.com Baltimore, MD PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support www.2ndQuadrant.us "PostgreSQL 9.0 High Performance": http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/books
