Bug Fixes: * Remove request for S3 object info directly after putting it. (Reported by Matt Kunkel.) * Correct archive-get-queue-max to be size type. (Reported by Ronan Dunklau.) * Add error message when current user uid/gid does not map to a name. (Reported by Camilo Aguilar.) * Error when --target-action=shutdown specified for PostgreSQL < 9.5. Improvements: * Set TCP keepalives on S3 connections. (Suggested by Ronan Dunklau.) * Reorder info command text output so most recent backup is output last. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang. Suggested by Ryan Lambert.) * Change file ownership only when required. * Redact authentication header when throwing S3 errors. (Suggested by Brad Nicholson.)
pgBackRest
Building Documentation
General Builds
The pgBackRest documentation can output a variety of formats and target several platforms and PostgreSQL versions.
This will build all documentation with defaults:
./doc.pl
The user guide can be built for different platforms: centos6, centos7, and debian. This will build the HTML user guide for CentOS/RHEL 7:
./doc.pl --out=html --include=user-guide --var=os-type=centos7
Documentation generation will build a cache of all executed statements and use the cache to build the documentation quickly if no executed statements have changed. This makes proofing text-only edits very fast, but sometimes it is useful to do a full build without using the cache:
./doc.pl --out=html --include=user-guide --var=os-type=centos6 --no-cache
Each os-type has a default container image that will be used as a base for creating hosts. For centos6/centos7 these defaults are generally fine, but for debian it can be useful to change the image.
./doc.pl --out=html --include=user-guide --var=os-type=debian --var=os-image=debian:9
Building with Packages
A user-specified package can be used when building the documentation. Since the documentation exercises most pgBackRest functionality this is a great way to smoke-test packages.
The package must be located within the pgBackRest repo and the specified path should be relative to the repository base. test/package is a good default path to use.
Ubuntu 16.04:
./doc.pl --out=html --include=user-guide --no-cache --var=os-type=debian --var=os-image=ubuntu:16.04 --var=package=test/package/pgbackrest_2.08-0_amd64.deb
CentOS/RHEL 6:
./doc.pl --out=html --include=user-guide --no-cache --var=os-type=centos6 --var=package=test/package/pgbackrest-2.08-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
CentOS/RHEL 7:
./doc.pl --out=html --include=user-guide --no-cache --var=os-type=centos7 --var=package=test/package/pgbackrest-2.08-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
