Overview

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.

Constructor Details

#initialize(*args) ⇒ Object

call-seq:

PG::Connection.new -> conn
PG::Connection.new(connection_hash) -> conn
PG::Connection.new(connection_string) -> conn
PG::Connection.new(host, port, options, tty, dbname, user, password) ->  conn

Create a connection to the specified server.

host

server hostname

hostaddr

server address (avoids hostname lookup, overrides host)

port

server port number

dbname

connecting database name

user

login user name

password

login password

connect_timeout

maximum time to wait for connection to succeed

options

backend options

tty

(ignored in newer versions of PostgreSQL)

sslmode

(disable|allow|prefer|require)

krbsrvname

kerberos service name

gsslib

GSS library to use for GSSAPI authentication

service

service name to use for additional parameters

Examples:

# Connect using all defaults
PG::Connection.new

# As a Hash
PG::Connection.new( :dbname => 'test', :port => 5432 )

# As a String
PG::Connection.new( "dbname=test port=5432" )

# As an Array
PG::Connection.new( nil, 5432, nil, nil, 'test', nil, nil )

If the Ruby default internal encoding is set (i.e., Encoding.default_internal != nil), the connection will have its client_encoding set accordingly.

Raises a PG::Error if the connection fails.

.PG::Connection.connect_start(connection_hash) ⇒ Object .PG::Connection.connect_start(connection_string) ⇒ Object .PG::Connection.connect_start(host, port, options, tty, dbname, login, password) ⇒ Object

This is an asynchronous version of PG::Connection.connect().

Use #connect_poll to poll the status of the connection.

NOTE: this does not set the connection’s client_encoding for you if Encoding.default_internal is set. To set it after the connection is established, call #internal_encoding=. You can also set it automatically by setting ENV, or include the ‘options’ connection parameter.

.escape_bytea(string) ⇒ String

Connection instance method for versions of 8.1 and higher of libpq uses PQescapeByteaConn, which is safer. Avoid calling as a class method, the class method uses the deprecated PQescapeBytea() API function.

Use the instance method version of this function, it is safer than the class method.

Escapes binary data for use within an SQL command with the type bytea.

Certain byte values must be escaped (but all byte values may be escaped) when used as part of a bytea literal in an SQL statement. In general, to escape a byte, it is converted into the three digit octal number equal to the octet value, and preceded by two backslashes. The single quote (‘) and backslash () characters have special alternative escape sequences. #escape_bytea performs this operation, escaping only the minimally required bytes.

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

Returns:

  • (String)

.escape_string(str) ⇒ String

Connection instance method for versions of 8.1 and higher of libpq uses PQescapeStringConn, which is safer. Avoid calling as a class method, the class method uses the deprecated PQescapeString() API function.

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.

Returns:

.PG::Connection.quote_ident(str) ⇒ String .quote_ident(str) ⇒ 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.

For example, in a typical SQL query: SELECT FOO FROM MYTABLE The identifier FOO is folded to lower case, so it actually means foo. If you really want to access the case-sensitive field name FOO, use this function like PG::Connection.quote_ident('FOO'), which will return "FOO" (with double-quotes). PostgreSQL will see the double-quotes, and it will not fold to lower case.

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

Overloads:

  • .PG::Connection.quote_ident(str) ⇒ String

    Returns:

    • (String)
  • .quote_ident(str) ⇒ String

.PG::Connection.unescape_bytea(string) ⇒ Object

Converts an escaped string representation of binary data into binary data — the reverse of #escape_bytea. This is needed when retrieving bytea data in text format, but not when retrieving it in binary format.

#copy_data(sql) ⇒ Object

call-seq:

conn.copy_data( sql ) {|sql_result| ... } -> PG::Result

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 STDOUT 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_bytea(string) ⇒ String

Connection instance method for versions of 8.1 and higher of libpq uses PQescapeByteaConn, which is safer. Avoid calling as a class method, the class method uses the deprecated PQescapeBytea() API function.

Use the instance method version of this function, it is safer than the class method.

Escapes binary data for use within an SQL command with the type bytea.

Certain byte values must be escaped (but all byte values may be escaped) when used as part of a bytea literal in an SQL statement. In general, to escape a byte, it is converted into the three digit octal number equal to the octet value, and preceded by two backslashes. The single quote (‘) and backslash () characters have special alternative escape sequences. #escape_bytea performs this operation, escaping only the minimally required bytes.

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

Returns:

#exec(sql) ⇒ PG::Result #exec(sql) {|pg_result| ... } ⇒ Object Also known as: query

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.

Overloads:

  • #exec(sql) ⇒ PG::Result

    Returns:

  • #exec(sql) {|pg_result| ... } ⇒ Object

    Yields:

    • (pg_result)

#exec_params(sql, params[, result_format ]) ⇒ PG::Result #exec_params(sql, params[, result_format ]) {|pg_result| ... } ⇒ Object

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.

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_prepared(statement_name[, params, result_format ]) ⇒ PG::Result #exec_prepared(statement_name[, params, result_format ]) {|pg_result| ... } ⇒ Object

Execute prepared named statement specified by statement_name. Returns a PG::Result instance on success. On failure, it raises a PG::Error.

params is an array of the optional 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)
   :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>, :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.

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

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_prepared returns the value of the block.

Overloads:

  • #exec_prepared(statement_name[, params, result_format ]) ⇒ PG::Result

    Returns:

  • #exec_prepared(statement_name[, params, result_format ]) {|pg_result| ... } ⇒ Object

    Yields:

    • (pg_result)

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.

#PG::Connection.quote_ident(str) ⇒ String #quote_ident(str) ⇒ 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.

For example, in a typical SQL query: SELECT FOO FROM MYTABLE The identifier FOO is folded to lower case, so it actually means foo. If you really want to access the case-sensitive field name FOO, use this function like PG::Connection.quote_ident('FOO'), which will return "FOO" (with double-quotes). PostgreSQL will see the double-quotes, and it will not fold to lower case.

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

Overloads:

  • #PG::Connection.quote_ident(str) ⇒ String

    Returns:

    • (String)
  • #quote_ident(str) ⇒ String

    Returns:

    • (String)

#send_prepare(stmt_name, sql[, param_types ]) ⇒ nil

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.

Returns:

#send_query(sql[, params, result_format ]) ⇒ nil

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 }

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.

Returns:

  • (nil)

#set_notice_receiver {|result| ... } ⇒ Proc

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.

Yields:

  • (result)

Returns:

  • (Proc)

#set_single_row_modeself

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 Connection#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 row 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

Returns:

  • (self)

#setnonblocking(Boolean) ⇒ nil

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.

Returns:

  • (nil)

#socketFixnum

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.

Returns:

  • (Fixnum)

}

#socket_ioObject

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+.

#wait_for_notify([ timeout ]) ⇒ String #wait_for_notify([ timeout ]) {|event, pid| ... } ⇒ Object #wait_for_notify([ timeout ]) ⇒ Object Also known as: notifies_wait

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.

Under PostgreSQL 9.0 and later, if the notification is sent with the optional payload string, it will be given to the block as the third argument.
