Detailed Description

A PostgreSQL connection.

This class provides the backend implementation for PostgreSQL databases.

When applicable, exceptions from the backend will return the five-character SQLSTATE error codes, as in http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/errcodes-appendix.html, in Exception::code().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Postgres() [1/3]

Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::Postgres ( )

Creates new PostgreSQL backend connection.

The connection is not yet open, and requires a connect() before it can be used.

◆ Postgres() [2/3]

Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::Postgres ( const std::string &  db)

Opens a new PostgreSQL backend connection.

The db may be any of the values supported by PQconnectdb().

◆ Postgres() [3/3]

Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::Postgres ( const Postgres other)

Copies a PostgreSQL connection.

This creates a new connection with the same settings as another connection.

See also
clone()

◆ ~Postgres()

Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::~Postgres ( )

Destructor.

Closes the connection.

Member Function Documentation

◆ autoincrementCreateSequenceSql()

std::vector< std::string > Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::autoincrementCreateSequenceSql ( const std::string &  table,
const std::string &  id 
) const
overridevirtual

Returns the SQL statement(s) required to create an id sequence.

This is used by Session::createTables() to create the id sequence for a table. The table's name and primary key are passed as arguments to this function and can be used to construct an SQL sequence that is unique for the table.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ autoincrementDropSequenceSql()

std::vector< std::string > Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::autoincrementDropSequenceSql ( const std::string &  table,
const std::string &  id 
) const
overridevirtual

Returns the SQL statement(s) required to drop an id sequence.

This is used by Session::dropTables() to drop the id sequence for a table. The table's name and primary key are passed as arguments to this function and can be used to construct an SQL sequence that is unique for the table.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ autoincrementInsertSuffix()

std::string Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::autoincrementInsertSuffix ( const std::string &  id) const
overridevirtual

Returns the suffix for an 'autoincrement' insert statement.

This is appended to the insert statement, since some back-ends need to be indicated that they should return the autoincrement id.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ autoincrementSql()

std::string Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::autoincrementSql ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the 'autoincrement' SQL type modifier.

This is used by Session::createTables() to create the id column.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ autoincrementType()

std::string Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::autoincrementType ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the 'autoincrement' SQL type.

This is used by Session::createTables() to create the id column.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ blobType()

const char * Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::blobType ( ) const
overridevirtual

◆ clone()

std::unique_ptr< SqlConnection > Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::clone ( ) const
overridevirtual

Clones the connection.

Returns a new connection object that is configured like this object. This is used by connection pool implementations to create its connections.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ commitTransaction()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::commitTransaction ( )
overridevirtual

Commits a transaction.

This function commits a transaction.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ connect()

bool Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::connect ( const std::string &  db)

Tries to connect.

Throws an exception if there was a problem, otherwise true. An example connecion string could be: "host=127.0.0.1 user=test password=test port=5432 dbname=test"

◆ dateTimeType()

const char * Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::dateTimeType ( SqlDateTimeType  type) const
overridevirtual

◆ disconnect()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::disconnect ( )

Disconnects.

This disconnects from the server. Any subsequent action on the connection will result in an automatic reconnect.

See also
reconnect()

◆ executeSql()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::executeSql ( const std::string &  sql)
overridevirtual

Executes an SQL statement.

This is a convenience method for preparing a statement, executing it, and deleting it.

Reimplemented from Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ prepareStatement()

std::unique_ptr< SqlStatement > Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::prepareStatement ( const std::string &  sql)
overridevirtual

Prepares a statement.

Returns the prepared statement.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ reconnect()

bool Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::reconnect ( )

Reconnect.

This will try to reconnect a previously disconnected connection. If the connection is still open, it will first disconnect.

◆ requireSubqueryAlias()

bool Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::requireSubqueryAlias ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the true if the database require subquery alias.

This method will return false by default.

Reimplemented from Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ rollbackTransaction()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::rollbackTransaction ( )
overridevirtual

Rolls back a transaction.

This function rolls back a transaction.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ setMaximumLifetime()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::setMaximumLifetime ( std::chrono::seconds  seconds)

Sets the maximum lifetime for the underlying connection.

The maximum lifetime is specified in seconds. If set to a value > 0, then the underlying connection object will be closed and reopened when the connection has been open longer than this lifetime.

The default value is -1 (unlimited lifetime).

◆ setTimeout()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::setTimeout ( std::chrono::microseconds  timeout)

Sets a timeout.

Sets a timeout for queries. When the query exceeds this timeout, the connection is closed using disconnect() and an exception is thrown.

In practice, as a result, the connection (and statements) can still be used again when a successful reconnect() is performed.

A value of 0 disables the timeout handling, allowing operations to take as much time is they require.

The default value is 0.

◆ startTransaction()

void Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::startTransaction ( )
overridevirtual

Starts a transaction.

This function starts a transaction.

Implements Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ supportAlterTable()

bool Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::supportAlterTable ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns true if the backend support Alter Table.

This method will return false by default.

Reimplemented from Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ supportDeferrableFKConstraint()

bool Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::supportDeferrableFKConstraint ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns true if the backend supports "deferrable initially deferred" foreign key constraints.

This method will return false by default.

Reimplemented from Wt::Dbo::SqlConnection.

◆ timeout()

std::chrono::microseconds Wt::Dbo::backend::Postgres::timeout ( ) const

Returns the timeout.
