|

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
This subtree contains tools, modules, and examples that are not
|
||||
maintained as part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because
|
||||
they only address a limited audience or are too inelegant to be
|
||||
sold as an official feature. That, however, does not preclude
|
||||
their usefulness.

||||

tools
|
||||
Each subdirectory contains a README file with information about the
|
||||
module. Most items can be built with `gmake all' and installed
|
||||
with `gmake install' in the usual fashion, after you have run the
|
||||
`configure' script in the top-level directory. Some directories
|
||||
supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. After you
|
||||
have installed the files you need to register the new entities in
|
||||
the database system by running the commands in the supplied .sql
|
||||
file. For example,
|
||||
|
||||
- the contrib contain is in the "Contrib.index"
|
||||
$ psql -d dbname -f module.sql
|
||||
|
||||
- in each directory must be Makefile, possible Makefile template
