This means that you can also access this regular expression directly, either with capturing groups or without, by passing `true` or `false` to the function, respectively. * Parsed `semver` values can be obtained by casting to the `semver_parsed` composite type. * All the same comparison operators and functions exist for `semver_parsed` as do for plain `semver` values. * In addition, `semver_parsed` values can be used for sorting and indexing. * `semver_parsed` values can be serialized to a properly formatted semantic version by casting (back) to `semver` or `text`. * There's a separate [`semver_prerelease`](#domain-semver_prerelease) domain type, so that the prerelease portions of semantic versions can be validated or compared (using the [`semver_prerelease_cmp()`](#function-semver_prerelease_cmp-semver_prerelease-semver_prerelease) function. ## Installation Basically: ``` sudo make install ``` Like most Postgres extensions, `pg_text_semver` requires [Postgres' PGXS build infrastructure](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/extend-pgxs.html) for `make install` to work. Depending on your OS, this may or may not require you to install anything in addition to the package you need to install to get the `postgres` daemon up and running. ## `pg_text_semver` usage See the [`test__pg_text_semver()`](#procedure-test__pg_text_semver) procedure for examples of how to use the types, operators and functions provides by this extension. ## Alternatives to `pg_text_semver` An excellent pre-existing alternative to `pg_text_semver` is the [`semver`](https://github.com/theory/pg-semver) extension. `semver` is written in C and therefore more efficient than `pg_text_semver`. But, as of March 2, 2023, [it treats the parts of the semantic version as 32-bit integers](https://github.com/theory/pg-semver/issues/47), while the spec prescribes no limitations to the size of each number. Besides [`semver`](https://github.com/theory/pg-semver) (repo name `pg-semver`, with a dash), there is also the older [PG SEMVER](https://github.com/eendroroy/pg_semver) (repo name `pg_semver`, with an underscore). The `pg_text_semver` author only discovered PG SEMVER _after_ releasing his own extension, and hasn't tried it; something left to do… ## Authors and contributors * [Rowan](https://www.bigsmoke.us/) originated this extension in 2022 while developing the PostgreSQL backend for the [FlashMQ SaaS MQTT cloud broker](https://www.flashmq.com/). Rowan does not like to see himself as a tech person or a tech writer, but, much to his chagrin, [he _is_](https://blog.bigsmoke.us/category/technology). Some of his chagrin about his disdain for the IT industry he poured into a book: [_Why Programming Still Sucks_](https://www.whyprogrammingstillsucks.com/). Much more than a “tech bro”, he identifies as a garden gnome, fairy and ork rolled into one, and his passion is really to [regreen and reenchant his environment](https://sapienshabitat.com/). One of his proudest achievements is to be the third generation ecological gardener to grow the wild garden around his beautiful [family holiday home in the forest of Norg, Drenthe, the Netherlands](https://www.schuilplaats-norg.nl/) (available for rent!). $markdown$; -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- create or replace function pg_text_semver_readme() returns text volatile set search_path from current set pg_readme.include_view_definitions to 'true' set pg_readme.include_routine_definitions_like to '{test__%}' language plpgsql as $plpgsql$ declare _readme text; begin create extension if not exists pg_readme cascade; _readme := pg_extension_readme('pg_text_semver'::name); raise transaction_rollback; -- to `DROP EXTENSION` if we happened to `CREATE EXTENSION` for just this. exception when transaction_rollback then return _readme; end; $plpgsql$; comment on function pg_text_semver_readme() is $md$This function utilizes the `pg_readme` extension to generate a thorough README for this extension, based on the `pg_catalog` and the `COMMENT` objects found therein. $md$; -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- create function pg_text_semver_meta_pgxn() returns jsonb stable language sql return jsonb_build_object( 'name' ,'pg_text_semver' ,'abstract' ,'PostgreSQL semantic versioning extension, with comparison functions and operators.' ,'description' ,'The pg_text_semver extension offers a "semver" DOMAIN type based on Postgres'' built-in "text" type.' ,'version' ,(select extversion from pg_extension where extname = 'pg_text_semver') ,'maintainer' ,array[ 'Rowan Rodrik van der Molen ' ] ,'license' ,'postgresql' ,'prereqs' ,'{ "develop": { "recommends": { "pg_readme": 0 } } }'::jsonb ,'provides' ,('{ "pg_text_semver": { "file": "pg_text_semver--1.2.1.sql", "version": "' || (select extversion from pg_extension where extname = 'pg_text_semver') || '", "docfile": "README.md" } }')::jsonb ,'resources' ,'{ "homepage": "https://blog.bigsmoke.us/tag/pg_text_semver", "bugtracker": { "web": "https://github.com/bigsmoke/pg_text_semver/issues" }, "repository": { "url": "https://github.com/bigsmoke/pg_text_semver.git", "web": "https://github.com/bigsmoke/pg_text_semver", "type": "git" } }'::jsonb ,'meta-spec' ,'{ "version": "1.0.0", "url": "https://pgxn.org/spec/" }'::jsonb ,'generated_by' ,'`select pg_text_semver_meta_pgxn()`' ,'tags' ,array[ 'domain', 'function', 'functions', 'plpgsql', 'semver', 'settings', 'type' ] ); comment on function pg_text_semver_meta_pgxn() is $md$Returns the JSON meta data that has to go into the `META.json` file needed for PGXN—PostgreSQL Extension Network—packages.
