Rose::DB::Pg - PostgreSQL driver class for Rose::DB.

  use Rose::DB;
  Rose::DB->register_db(
    domain   => 'development',
    type     => 'main',
    driver   => 'Pg',
    database => 'dev_db',
    host     => 'localhost',
    username => 'devuser',
    password => 'mysecret',
    server_time_zone => 'UTC',
    european_dates   => 1,
  );
  Rose::DB->default_domain('development');
  Rose::DB->default_type('main');
  ...
  $db = Rose::DB->new; # $db is really a Rose::DB::Pg-derived object
  ...

Rose::DB blesses objects into a class derived from Rose::DB::Pg when the driver is "pg". This mapping of driver names to class names is configurable. See the documentation for Rose::DB's new() and driver_class() methods for more information.

This class cannot be used directly. You must use Rose::DB and let its new() method return an object blessed into the appropriate class for you, according to its driver_class() mappings.

Only the methods that are new or have different behaviors than those in Rose::DB are documented here. See the Rose::DB documentation for the full list of methods.

Get or set a boolean value that indicates whether or not timestamp keywords should be inline. If "timestamps_are_inlined" is true, then keywords such as CURRENT_DATESTAMP and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP are inlined in the generated SQL queries. The default is false.

Get or set the boolean value that determines whether or not dates are assumed to be in european dd/mm/yyyy format. The default is to assume US mm/dd/yyyy format (because this is the default for PostgreSQL).

This value will be passed to DateTime::Format::Pg as the value of the "european" parameter in the call to the constructor "new()". This DateTime::Format::Pg object is used by Rose::DB::Pg to parse and format date-related column values in methods like parse_date, format_date, etc.

Advance the sequence named SEQUENCE and return the new value. Returns undef if there was an error.
Get or set the time zone used by the database server software. TZ should be a time zone name that is understood by DateTime::TimeZone. The default value is "floating".

This value will be passed to DateTime::Format::Pg as the value of the "server_tz" parameter in the call to the constructor "new()". This DateTime::Format::Pg object is used by Rose::DB::Pg to parse and format date-related column values in methods like parse_date, format_date, etc.

See the DateTime::TimeZone documentation for acceptable values of TZ.

Get or set the pg_enable_utf8 database handle attribute. This is set directly on the dbh, if one exists. Otherwise, it will be set when the dbh is created. If no value for this attribute is defined (the default) then it will not be set when the dbh is created, deferring instead to whatever default value DBD::Pg chooses.

Returns the value of this attribute in the dbh, if one exists, or the value that will be set when the dbh is next created.

See the DBD::Pg documentation to learn more about this attribute.

Get or set the SSL mode of the connection. Valid values for MODE are "disable", "allow", "prefer", and "require". This attribute is used to build the DBI dsn. Setting it has no effect until the next connection. See the DBD::Pg documentation to learn more about this attribute.

Given a reference to an array or a list of values, return a string formatted according to the rules of PostgreSQL's "ARRAY" column type. Undef is returned if ARRAYREF points to an empty array or if LIST is not passed.
Given a DateTime::Duration object, return a string formatted according to the rules of PostgreSQL's "INTERVAL" column type. If DURATION is undefined, a DateTime::Duration object, a valid interval keyword (according to validate_interval_keyword), or if it looks like a function call (matches "/^\w+\(.*\)$/") and keyword_function_calls is true, then it is returned unmodified.
Parse STRING and return a reference to an array. STRING should be formatted according to PostgreSQL's "ARRAY" data type. Undef is returned if STRING is undefined.
Parse STRING and return a DateTime::Duration object. STRING should be formatted according to the PostgreSQL native "interval" (years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds) data type.

If STRING is a DateTime::Duration object, a valid interval keyword (according to validate_interval_keyword), or if it looks like a function call (matches "/^\w+\(.*\)$/") and keyword_function_calls is true, then it is returned unmodified. Otherwise, undef is returned if STRING could not be parsed as a valid "interval" value.

Returns true if STRING is a valid keyword for the PostgreSQL "date" data type. Valid (case-insensitive) date keywords are: 

    current_date
    epoch
    now
    now()
    today
    tomorrow
    yesterday

The keywords are case sensitive. Any string that looks like a function call (matches "/^\w+\(.*\)$/") is also considered a valid date keyword if keyword_function_calls is true.

Returns true if STRING is a valid keyword for the PostgreSQL "datetime" data type, false otherwise. Valid (case-insensitive) datetime keywords are: 

    -infinity
    allballs
    current_date
    current_time
    current_time()
    current_timestamp
    current_timestamp()
    epoch
    infinity
    localtime
    localtime()
    localtimestamp
    localtimestamp()
    now
    now()
    timeofday()
    today
    tomorrow
    yesterday

The keywords are case sensitive. Any string that looks like a function call (matches "/^\w+\(.*\)$/") is also considered a valid datetime keyword if keyword_function_calls is true.

Returns true if STRING is a valid keyword for the PostgreSQL "time" data type, false otherwise. Valid (case-insensitive) timestamp keywords are: 

    allballs
    current_time
    current_time()
    localtime
    localtime()
    now
    now()
    timeofday()

The keywords are case sensitive. Any string that looks like a function call (matches "/^\w+\(.*\)$/") is also considered a valid timestamp keyword if keyword_function_calls is true.

Returns true if STRING is a valid keyword for the PostgreSQL "timestamp" data type, false otherwise. Valid (case-insensitive) timestamp keywords are: 

    -infinity
    allballs
    current_date
    current_time
    current_time()
    current_timestamp
    current_timestamp()
    epoch
    infinity
    localtime
    localtime()
    localtimestamp
    localtimestamp()
    now
    now()
    timeofday()
    today
    tomorrow
    yesterday

The keywords are case sensitive. Any string that looks like a function call (matches "/^\w+\(.*\)$/") is also considered a valid timestamp keyword if keyword_function_calls is true.
