class PGconn

The PostgreSQL connection class. The interface for this class is based on libpq, the C application programmer's interface to PostgreSQL. Some familiarity with libpq is recommended, but not necessary.

For example, to send query to the database on the localhost:

require 'pg'
conn = PG::Connection.open(:dbname => 'test')
res = conn.exec_params('SELECT $1 AS a, $2 AS b, $3 AS c', [1, 2, nil])
# Equivalent to:
#  res  = conn.exec('SELECT 1 AS a, 2 AS b, NULL AS c')

See the PG::Result class for information on working with the results of a query.

Constants

CONNECT_ARGUMENT_ORDER: The order the options are passed to the ::connect method.

Public Class Methods

PG::Connection.conndefaults() → Array click to toggle source

Returns an array of hashes. Each hash has the keys:

:keyword: the name of the option
:envvar: the environment variable to fall back to
:compiled: the compiled in option as a secondary fallback
:val: the option's current value, or nil if not known
:label: the label for the field
:dispchar: “” for normal, “D” for debug, and “*” for password
:dispsize: field size

static VALUE
pgconn_s_conndefaults(VALUE self)
{
        PQconninfoOption *options = PQconndefaults();
        VALUE array = pgconn_make_conninfo_array( options );

        PQconninfoFree(options);

        UNUSED( self );

        return array;
}

Public Instance Methods

async_exec(sql [, params, result_format ] ) → PG::Result click to toggle source

async_exec(sql [, params, result_format ] ) {|pg_result| block }

This function has the same behavior as exec, but is implemented using the asynchronous command processing API of libpq.

static VALUE
pgconn_async_exec(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self)
{
        VALUE rb_pgresult = Qnil;

        /* remove any remaining results from the queue */
        pgconn_block( 0, NULL, self ); /* wait for input (without blocking) before reading the last result */
        pgconn_get_last_result( self );

        pgconn_send_query( argc, argv, self );
        pgconn_block( 0, NULL, self );
        rb_pgresult = pgconn_get_last_result( self );

        if ( rb_block_given_p() ) {
                return rb_ensure( rb_yield, rb_pgresult, pg_result_clear, rb_pgresult );
        }
        return rb_pgresult;
}

Also aliased as: async_query

async_query(*args)

Alias for: async_exec

backend_pid() → Fixnum click to toggle source

Returns the process ID of the backend server process for this connection. Note that this is a PID on database server host.

static VALUE
pgconn_backend_pid(VALUE self)
{
        return INT2NUM(PQbackendPID(pg_get_pgconn(self)));
}

block( [ timeout ] ) → Boolean click to toggle source

Blocks until the server is no longer busy, or until the optional timeout is reached, whichever comes first. timeout is measured in seconds and can be fractional.

Returns false if timeout is reached, true otherwise.

If true is returned, conn.is_busy will return false and conn.get_result will not block.

static VALUE
pgconn_block( int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self ) {
        PGconn *conn = pg_get_pgconn( self );

        /* If WIN32 and Ruby 1.9 do not use rb_thread_select() which sometimes hangs
         * and does not wait (nor sleep) any time even if timeout is given.
         * Instead use the Winsock events and rb_w32_wait_events(). */

        struct timeval timeout;
        struct timeval *ptimeout = NULL;
        VALUE timeout_in;
        double timeout_sec;
        void *ret;

        if ( rb_scan_args(argc, argv, "01", &timeout_in) == 1 ) {

                timeout.tv_sec = (time_t)timeout_sec;
                timeout.tv_usec = (suseconds_t)((timeout_sec - (long)timeout_sec) * 1e6);
                ptimeout = &timeout;
        }

        ret = wait_socket_readable( conn, ptimeout, get_result_readable);

        if( !ret )
                return Qfalse;

        return Qtrue;
}

cancel() → String click to toggle source

Requests cancellation of the command currently being processed. (Only implemented in PostgreSQL >= 8.0)

Returns nil on success, or a string containing the error message if a failure occurs.

static VALUE
pgconn_cancel(VALUE self)
{
#ifdef HAVE_PQGETCANCEL
        char errbuf[256];
        PGcancel *cancel;

        int ret;

        cancel = PQgetCancel(pg_get_pgconn(self));
        if(cancel == NULL)
                rb_raise(rb_ePGerror,"Invalid connection!");

        ret = gvl_PQcancel(cancel, errbuf, 256);

while(status != PG::PGRES_POLLING_OK) do
  # do some work while waiting for the connection to complete
  if(status == PG::PGRES_POLLING_READING)
    if(not select([socket], [], [], 10.0))
      raise "Asynchronous connection timed out!"
    end
  elsif(status == PG::PGRES_POLLING_WRITING)
    if(not select([], [socket], [], 10.0))
      raise "Asynchronous connection timed out!"
    end
  end
  status = conn.connect_poll
end
# now conn.status == CONNECTION_OK, and connection
# is ready.

static VALUE
pgconn_connect_poll(VALUE self)
{
        PostgresPollingStatusType status;

{
        return PQconnectionUsedPassword(pg_get_pgconn(self)) ? Qtrue : Qfalse;
}

{
        PGconn *conn = pg_get_pgconn(self);
        PQconninfoOption *options = PQconninfo( conn );
        VALUE array = pgconn_make_conninfo_array( options );

        PQconninfoFree(options);

        return array;
}

conninfo_hash() click to toggle source

See also conninfo

# File lib/pg/connection.rb, line 220
def conninfo_hash
        return self.conninfo.each_with_object({}) do |info, hash|
                hash[ info[:keyword].to_sym ] = info[:val]
        end
end

consume_input() click to toggle source

If input is available from the server, consume it. After calling consume_input, you can check is_busy or notifies to see if the state has changed.

static VALUE
pgconn_consume_input(self)
        VALUE self;
{
        VALUE error;
        PGconn *conn = pg_get_pgconn(self);
        /* returns 0 on error */
        if(PQconsumeInput(conn) == 0) {
                error = rb_exc_new2(rb_eConnectionBad, PQerrorMessage(conn));
                rb_iv_set(error, "@connection", self);
                rb_exc_raise(error);
        }
        return Qnil;
}

copy_data( sql ) {|sql_result| ... } → PG::Result click to toggle source

Execute a copy process for transfering data to or from the server.

This issues the SQL COPY command via exec. The response to this (if there is no error in the command) is a PG::Result object that is passed to the block, bearing a status code of PGRES_COPY_OUT or PGRES_COPY_IN (depending on the specified copy direction). The application should then use put_copy_data or get_copy_data to receive or transmit data rows and should return from the block when finished.

copy_data returns another PG::Result object when the data transfer is complete. An exception is raised if some problem was encountered, so it isn't required to make use of any of them. At this point further SQL commands can be issued via exec. (It is not possible to execute other SQL commands using the same connection while the COPY operation is in progress.)

This method ensures, that the copy process is properly terminated in case of client side or server side failures. Therefore, in case of blocking mode of operation, copy_data is preferred to raw calls of put_copy_data, get_copy_data and put_copy_end.

Example with CSV input format:

conn.exec "create table my_table (a text,b text,c text,d text,e text)"
conn.copy_data "COPY my_table FROM STDIN CSV" do
  conn.put_copy_data "some,csv,data,to,copy\n"
  conn.put_copy_data "more,csv,data,to,copy\n"
end

This creates my_table and inserts two rows.

Example with CSV output format:

conn.copy_data "COPY my_table TO STDOUT CSV" do
  while row=conn.get_copy_data
    p row
  end
end

This prints all rows of my_table to stdout:

"some,csv,data,to,copy\n"
"more,csv,data,to,copy\n"

escape_string( str ) → String click to toggle source

Returns a SQL-safe version of the String str. This is the preferred way to make strings safe for inclusion in SQL queries.

Consider using #exec_params, which avoids the need for passing values inside of SQL commands.

Encoding of escaped string will be equal to client encoding of connection.

exec(sql) → PG::Result click to toggle source

exec(sql) {|pg_result| block }

Sends SQL query request specified by sql to PostgreSQL. Returns a PG::Result instance on success. On failure, it raises a PG::Error.

For backward compatibility, if you pass more than one parameter to this method, it will call exec_params for you. New code should explicitly use exec_params if argument placeholders are used.

If the optional code block is given, it will be passed result as an argument, and the PG::Result object will automatically be cleared when the block terminates. In this instance, conn.exec returns the value of the block.

exec is implemented on the synchronous command processing API of libpq, whereas async_exec is implemented on the asynchronous API. exec is somewhat faster that async_exec, but blocks any signals to be processed until the query is finished. This is most notably visible by a delayed reaction to Control+C. Both methods ensure that other threads can process while waiting for the server to complete the request.

}

Also aliased as: query

exec_params(sql, params[, result_format[, type_map]] ) → PG::Result click to toggle source

exec_params(sql, params[, result_format[, type_map]] ) {|pg_result| block }

Sends SQL query request specified by sql to PostgreSQL using placeholders for parameters.

Returns a PG::Result instance on success. On failure, it raises a PG::Error.

params is an array of the bind parameters for the SQL query. Each element of the params array may be either:

a hash of the form:
  {:value  => String (value of bind parameter)
   :type   => Fixnum (oid of type of bind parameter)
   :format => Fixnum (0 for text, 1 for binary)
  }
or, it may be a String. If it is a string, that is equivalent to the hash:
  { :value => <string value>, :type => 0, :format => 0 }

PostgreSQL bind parameters are represented as $1, $1, $2, etc., inside the SQL query. The 0th element of the params array is bound to $1, the 1st element is bound to $2, etc. nil is treated as NULL.

If the types are not specified, they will be inferred by PostgreSQL. Instead of specifying type oids, it's recommended to simply add explicit casts in the query to ensure that the right type is used.

For example: “SELECT $1::int”

The optional result_format should be 0 for text results, 1 for binary.

type_map can be a PG::TypeMap derivation (such as PG::BasicTypeMapForQueries). This will type cast the params form various Ruby types before transmission based on the encoders defined by the type map. When a type encoder is used the format and oid of a given bind parameter are retrieved from the encoder instead out of the hash form described above.

put_copy_data( buffer [, encoder] ) → Boolean click to toggle source

Transmits buffer as copy data to the server. Returns true if the data was sent, false if it was not sent (false is only possible if the connection is in nonblocking mode, and this command would block).

encoder can be a PG::Coder derivation (typically PG::TextEncoder::CopyRow). This encodes the received data fields from an Array of Strings. Optionally the encoder can type cast the fields form various Ruby types in one step, if PG::CopyCoder#type_map is set accordingly.

Raises an exception if an error occurs.

PG::Connection.quote_ident( str ) → String click to toggle source

PG::Connection.quote_ident( array ) → String

quote_ident( str ) → String

quote_ident( array ) → String

Returns a string that is safe for inclusion in a SQL query as an identifier. Note: this is not a quote function for values, but for identifiers.

Similarly, this function also protects against special characters, and other things that might allow SQL injection if the identifier comes from an untrusted source.

If the parameter is an Array, then all it's values are separately quoted and then joined by a “.” character. This can be used for identifiers in the form “schema”.“table”.“column” .

This method is functional identical to the encoder PG::TextEncoder::Identifier .

send_prepare( stmt_name, sql [, param_types ] ) → nil click to toggle source

Prepares statement sql with name name to be executed later. Sends prepare command asynchronously, and returns immediately. On failure, it raises a PG::Error.

param_types is an optional parameter to specify the Oids of the types of the parameters.

If the types are not specified, they will be inferred by PostgreSQL. Instead of specifying type oids, it's recommended to simply add explicit casts in the query to ensure that the right type is used.

For example: “SELECT $1::int”

PostgreSQL bind parameters are represented as $1, $1, $2, etc., inside the SQL query.

send_query(sql [, params, result_format[, type_map ]] ) → nil click to toggle source

Sends SQL query request specified by sql to PostgreSQL for asynchronous processing, and immediately returns. On failure, it raises a PG::Error.

params is an optional array of the bind parameters for the SQL query. Each element of the params array may be either:

a hash of the form:
  {:value  => String (value of bind parameter)
   :type   => Fixnum (oid of type of bind parameter)
   :format => Fixnum (0 for text, 1 for binary)
  }
or, it may be a String. If it is a string, that is equivalent to the hash:
  { :value => <string value>, :type => 0, :format => 0 }

If the types are not specified, they will be inferred by PostgreSQL. Instead of specifying type oids, it's recommended to simply add explicit casts in the query to ensure that the right type is used.

For example: “SELECT $1::int”

The optional result_format should be 0 for text results, 1 for binary.

set_notice_receiver {|result| ... } → Proc click to toggle source

Notice and warning messages generated by the server are not returned by the query execution functions, since they do not imply failure of the query. Instead they are passed to a notice handling function, and execution continues normally after the handler returns. The default notice handling function prints the message on stderr, but the application can override this behavior by supplying its own handling function.

For historical reasons, there are two levels of notice handling, called the notice receiver and notice processor. The default behavior is for the notice receiver to format the notice and pass a string to the notice processor for printing. However, an application that chooses to provide its own notice receiver will typically ignore the notice processor layer and just do all the work in the notice receiver.

This function takes a new block to act as the handler, which should accept a single parameter that will be a PG::Result object, and returns the Proc object previously set, or nil if it was previously the default.

If you pass no arguments, it will reset the handler to the default.

Note: The result passed to the block should not be used outside of the block, since the corresponding C object could be freed after the block finishes.

set_single_row_mode → self click to toggle source

To enter single-row mode, call this method immediately after a successful call of #send_query (or a sibling function). This mode selection is effective only for the currently executing query. Then call #get_result repeatedly, until it returns nil.

Each (but the last) received Result has exactly one row and a Result#result_status of PGRES_SINGLE_TUPLE. The last Result has zero rows and is used to indicate a successful execution of the query. All of these Result objects will contain the same row description data (column names, types, etc) that an ordinary Result object for the query would have.

Caution: While processing a query, the server may return some rows and then encounter an error, causing the query to be aborted. Ordinarily, pg discards any such rows and reports only the error. But in single-row mode, those rows will have already been returned to the application. Hence, the application will see some Result objects followed by an Error raised in get_result. For proper transactional behavior, the application must be designed to discard or undo whatever has been done with the previously-processed rows, if the query ultimately fails.

Example:

conn.send_query( "your SQL command" )
conn.set_single_row_mode
loop do
  res = conn.get_result or break
  res.check
  res.each do |row|
    # do something with the received row
  end
end

setnonblocking(Boolean) → nil click to toggle source

Sets the nonblocking status of the connection. In the blocking state, calls to send_query will block until the message is sent to the server, but will not wait for the query results. In the nonblocking state, calls to send_query will return an error if the socket is not ready for writing. Note: This function does not affect exec, because that function doesn't return until the server has processed the query and returned the results. Returns nil.

socket() → Fixnum click to toggle source

Returns the socket's file descriptor for this connection. IO.for_fd() can be used to build a proper IO object to the socket. If you do so, you will likely also want to set autoclose=false on it to prevent Ruby from closing the socket to PostgreSQL if it goes out of scope. Alternatively, you can use socket_io, which creates an IO that's associated with the connection object itself, and so won't go out of scope until the connection does.

Note: On Windows the file descriptor is not really usable, since it can not be used to build a Ruby IO object.

pgconn_socket(VALUE self)

        int sd;

        return INT2NUM(sd);
}

socket_io() → IO click to toggle source

Fetch a memoized IO object created from the Connection's underlying socket. This object can be used for IO.select to wait for events while running asynchronous API calls.

Using this instead of socket avoids the problem of the underlying connection being closed by Ruby when an IO created using IO.for_fd(conn.socket) goes out of scope.

This method can also be used on Windows but requires Ruby-2.0+.

Blocks while waiting for notification(s), or until the optional timeout is reached, whichever comes first. timeout is measured in seconds and can be fractional.

Returns nil if timeout is reached, the name of the NOTIFY event otherwise. If used in block form, passes the name of the NOTIFY event and the generating pid into the block.
