bugfix: schemas/util.sql: drop_relation(): need to pass force param to util.drop_*()

schemas/util.sql: added relation_type_char(regclass)

bugfix: schemas/util.sql: relation_type(character): must use "char" type for single character, as character actually allows multiple characters. corrected return type.

schemas/util.sql: added relation_type(character)

schemas/util.sql: schema_matches(): should be IMMUTABLE, not STABLE, because it uses only parameter values

schemas/util.sql: added regexp_quote()

fix: schemas/util.sql: is_table(), is_view(): should be STABLE, not IMMUTABLE, because they reference tables

schemas/util.sql: added drop_relation()

schemas/util.sql: added is_table()

schemas/util.sql: added is_view()

bugfix: schemas/util.sql: show_views_like(): need to match the schema exactly, not via regexp like util.show_relations_like() does

schemas/util.sql: show_views_like(): use util.show_relations_like()

schemas/util.sql: show_views_like(): reversed argument order to match show_relations_like()

schemas/util.sql: added show_relations_like()

schemas/util.sql: added schema_matches()

schemas/util.sql: materialize_query(): ANALYZE the created table so that it has the correct estimated rowcount

schemas/util.sql: added analyze_()

schemas/util.sql: added raise_error_notice()

bugfix: schemas/util.sql: diff(text, text): also need to include only different rows when comparing single-row tables

schemas/util.sql: show_views_like(): added predictable ordering

schemas/util.sql: added show_views_like()

schemas/util.sql: added schema_oid()

schemas/util.sql: remake_diff_table(): add comment on the diff table showing how to view it in human-readable form. (the table unfortunately cannot be materialized in human-readable form, because this would create column name collisions between the two sides.)

schemas/util.sql: added set_comment()

schemas/util.sql: added eval2records()

fix: schemas/util.sql: diff(regclass, regclass): display single row tables side-by-side

schemas/util.sql: diff(text, text): implemented the single_row feature

schemas/util.sql: diff(text, text): added single_row param (not implemented yet, to make reading the svn diff easier). to view this svn diff, it is helpful to use WinMerge, which offers moved block detection (/README.TXT > WinMerge setup).

fix: schemas/util.sql: remake_diff_table(): util.diff() call: include explicit types on arguments to ensure that the correct diff() variant is used

schemas/util.sql: added has_single_row()

schemas/util.sql: added remake_diff_table()

schemas/util.sql: drop_*(): added force param to use CASCADE mode

fix: schemas/util.sql: diff(regclass, regclass): usage: col_type_null must actually be a shared base type of the tables

fix: schemas/util.sql: diff(regclass, regclass): usage: text arguments must be cast to regclass to bind the right variant of diff()

fix: schemas/util.sql: diff(regclass, regclass): renamed params to *_table because these actually can't be views, since views don't support inheritance

schemas/util.sql: added copy_struct()

schemas/util.sql: added inherit()

bugfix: schemas/util.sql: diff(): need to explicitly cast each side to the return type because this does not happen automatically even when an implicit cast is available

schemas/util.sql: renamed diff_views(), diff_any() to diff(...) because they are overloads of the same operation

schemas/util.sql: diff_any(): documented how to run EXPLAIN on the FULL JOIN query

schemas/util.sql: removed non-useful diff_queries() (it is not possible to match distinct `record` types to a common return type, so this would not have worked). use diff_views() instead.

bugfix: schemas/util.sql: diff_queries(), diff_views(): embed views verbatim as FROM items, so that the type of their corresponding columns is the view's rowtype. this is necessary in order to match the types of the columns to the return type (set by col_type_null).

schemas/util.sql: diff_cols(): renamed to diff_queries() because multiple columns are supported

fix: schemas/util.sql: diff_cols(): don't assume that each side will have one column, as many of our validations queries have multiple columns

bugfix: schemas/util.sql: diff_views(): need to use $2, not $1, for the 2nd query

fix: schemas/util.sql: materialize_query(): remove any extra blank line before the query, to improve readability when newlines are used as a log message separator and are therefore confusing in the middle of a log message

schemas/util.sql: added ltrim_nl()

schemas/util.sql: added mk_set_search_path(VARIADIC schemas text[])

schemas/util.sql: added mk_use_own_schema()

schemas/util.sql: added mk_set_search_path()

schemas/util.sql: use builtin string_agg(..., ) instead of concat()

schemas/util.sql: added qual_name(type unknown) to avoid needing to explicitly specify the type of an input string

schemas/util.sql: qual_name(table_ regclass): use ::text with search_path=pg_temp like qual_name(type regtype), rather than casting to text and then using qual_name(type regtype)

schemas/util.sql: type_qual_name(type regtype): renamed to qual_name(type regtype) to match qual_name(table_ regclass)

schemas/util.sql: added rematerialize_query()

schemas/vegbien.sql: materialize_query(): support schema-qualified tables. this requires escaping tables in calls to this function.

schemas/util.sql: added qual_name()

schemas/util.sql: use new util.debug_print_sql() instead of `RAISE NOTICE` to improve readability of the debug output (which is used throughout the runscripts)

schemas/util.sql: added debug_print_sql()

schemas/util.sql: added raise_notice(), to allow NOTICEs to be raised in sql-language functions

schemas/util.sql: added rematerialize_view()

schemas/util.sql: schema(regtype), schema(regclass): use new schema(pg_namespace_oid oid)

schemas/util.sql: added schema(pg_namespace_oid oid)

schemas/util.sql: schema(regclass): use joins instead of nested SELECTs for consistency with schema(regtype)

schemas/util.sql: regenerated from DB, which reorders the functions

schemas/util.sql: table_name(): renamed to name(regclass) for consistency with other name(...) functions

schemas/util.sql: table_schema(): renamed to schema(regclass) for consistency with other schema(...) functions

schemas/util.sql: schema_ident(): renamed to schema_esc() for clarity

schemas/util.sql: added mk_search_path()

schemas/*.sql: make sure every COMMENT starts and ends on its own line, so that it appears correctly in the formats it's most likely to be read in (ie. in the DDL export, not the COMMENT edit box in pgAdmin)

schemas/util.sql: added materialize_view()

schemas/util.sql: added table_name()

schemas/util.sql: table_schema(): removed unneeded STRICT, which prevents inlining

fix: schemas/util.sql: fix_array(): removed no longer accurate comment about effects of STRICT, which is no longer used

fix: schemas/util.sql: materialize_query(): 1st param should be named table_, not view_

schemas/util.sql: added drop_view()

schemas/util.sql: added materialize_query()

schemas/util.sql: ifnull(): use COALESCE instead, because it turns out that MySQL's IFNULL is just a special case of this

schemas/util.sql: added ifnull(), equivalent to MySQL's IFNULL (Postgres auto-lowercases the name)

schemas/util.sql: diff_cols(): documented how to run EXPLAIN on the FULL JOIN query

schemas/util.sql: diff_cols(): embed left_query/right_query directly in the main SQL statement, so that the query planner can take the sort order of the queries into account in planning the FULL JOIN (and where possible, use a fast merge join)

schemas/util.sql: added eval2col_pair()

schemas/util.sql: added functions for maintaining schema bundles, groups of schemas with a common prefix

schemas/util.sql: added schema_bundle_get_schemas()

schemas/util.sql: added schema_replace()

schemas/util.sql: added schema_rm(), schema_rename()

schemas/util.sql: added diff_views()

schemas/util.sql: added diff_cols(), for use with the aggregating validations

moved everything into /trunk/ to create the standard svn layout, for use with tools that require this (eg. git-svn). IMPORTANT: do NOT do an `svn up`. instead, re-use your working copy's existing files with `svn switch` (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.6/svn.ref.svn.c.switch.html).

schemas/util.sql: explain2table(): documented usage:
PERFORM util.explain2table($$
query
$$);

schemas/util.sql: explain2table(): by default, use the util.explain table

schemas/util.sql: added explain table

schemas/util.sql: added explain2notice()

schemas/util.sql: added explain2str()

schemas/util.sql: added explain2table()

schemas/util.sql: added explain()

schemas/util.sql: added force_recreate(), for use by sync_analytical_stem_to_view(). this uses the new `GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS` in PostgreSQL 9.3 to access the DETAIL section of the dependent_objects_still_exist error.

schemas/*.sql: updated for PostgreSQL 9.3. this reorders some functions, adds empty comment headers for omitted SEQUENCE SET commands, and (best of all) finally splits view columns onto multiple lines, so that changes in the columns are actually legible (and produce their own svn diff!)

schemas/util.sql: added save_drop_views()

schemas/util.sql: added is_empty(anyarray)
