2016-04-08Add a 'parallel_degree' reloption.Robert Haas
The code that estimates what parallel degree should be uesd for the scan of a relation is currently rather stupid, so add a parallel_degree reloption that can be used to override the planner's rather limited judgement. Julien Rouhaud, reviewed by David Rowley, James Sewell, Amit Kapila, and me. Some further hacking by me.
2016-04-04Add a \gexec command to psql for evaluation of computed queries.Tom Lane
\gexec executes the just-entered query, like \g, but instead of printing the results it takes each field as a SQL command to send to the server. Computing a series of queries to be executed is a fairly common thing, but up to now you always had to resort to kluges like writing the queries to a file and then inputting the file. Now it can be done with no intermediate step. The implementation is fairly straightforward except for its interaction with FETCH_COUNT. ExecQueryUsingCursor isn't capable of being called recursively, and even if it were, its need to create a transaction block interferes unpleasantly with the desired behavior of \gexec after a failure of a generated query (i.e., that it can continue). Therefore, disable use of ExecQueryUsingCursor when doing the master \gexec query. We can still apply it to individual generated queries, however, and there might be some value in doing so. While testing this feature's interaction with single-step mode, I (tgl) was led to conclude that SendQuery needs to recognize SIGINT (cancel_pressed) as a negative response to the single-step prompt. Perhaps that's a back-patchable bug fix, but for now I just included it here. Corey Huinker, reviewed by Jim Nasby, Daniel Vérité, and myself
2016-04-03Add psql \errverbose command to see last server error at full verbosity.Tom Lane
Often, upon getting an unexpected error in psql, one's first wish is that the verbosity setting had been higher; for example, to be able to see the schema-name field or the server code location info. Up to now the only way has been to adjust the VERBOSITY variable and repeat the failing query. That's a pain, and it doesn't work if the error isn't reproducible. This commit adds a psql feature that redisplays the most recent server error at full verbosity, without needing to make any variable changes or re-execute the failed command. We just need to hang onto the latest error PGresult in case the user executes \errverbose, and then apply libpq's new PQresultVerboseErrorMessage() function to it. This will consume some trivial amount of psql memory, but otherwise the cost when the feature isn't used should be negligible. Alex Shulgin, reviewed by Daniel Vérité, some improvements by me

2016-03-04Fix query-based tab completion for multibyte characters.Robert Haas
The existing code confuses the byte length of the string (which is relevant when passing it to pg_strncasecmp) with the character length of the string (which is relevant when it is used with the SQL substring function). Separate those two concepts. Report and patch by Kyotaro Horiguchi, reviewed by Thomas Munro and reviewed and further revised by me.

2016-01-12psql: Improve CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY tab completionPeter Eisentraut
The completion of CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY was lacking in several ways compared to a plain CREATE INDEX command: - CREATE INDEX <name> ON completes table names, but didn't with CONCURRENTLY. - CREATE INDEX completes ON and existing index names, but with CONCURRENTLY it only completed ON. - CREATE INDEX <name> completes ON, but didn't with CONCURRENTLY. These are now all fixed.

2016-01-05Convert psql's tab completion for backslash commands to the new style.Tom Lane
This requires adding some more infrastructure to handle both case-sensitive and case-insensitive matching, as well as the ability to match a prefix of a previous word. So it ends up being about a wash line-count-wise, but it's just as big a readability win here as in the SQL tab completion rules. Michael Paquier, some adjustments by me
2016-01-04In psql's tab completion, change most TailMatches patterns to Matches.Tom Lane
In the refactoring in commit d37b816dc9e8f976c8913296781e08cbd45c5af1, we mostly kept to the original design whereby only the last few words on the line were matched to identify a completable pattern. However, after commit d854118c8df8c413d069f7e88bb01b9e18e4c8ed, there's really no reason to do it like that: where it's sensible, we can use patterns that expect to match the entire input line. And mostly, it's sensible. Matching the entire line greatly reduces the odds of a false match that leads to offering irrelevant completions. Moreover (though I've not tried to measure this), it should make tab completion faster since many of the patterns will be discarded after a single integer comparison that finds that the wrong number of words appear on the line. There are certain identifiable places where we still need to use TailMatches because the statement in question is allowed to appear embedded in a larger statement. These are just a small minority of the existing patterns, though, so the benefit of switching where possible is large. It's possible that this patch has removed some within-line matching behaviors that are in fact desirable, but we can put those back when we get complaints. Most of the removed behaviors are certainly silly. Michael Paquier, with some further adjustments by me

2015-12-21Fix calculation of space needed for parsed words in tab completion.Tom Lane
Yesterday in commit d854118c8, I had a serious brain fade leading me to underestimate the number of words that the tab-completion logic could divide a line into. On input such as "(((((", each character will get seen as a separate word, which means we do indeed sometimes need more space for the words than for the original line. Fix that.
2015-12-20Remove silly completion for "DELETE FROM tabname ...".Tom Lane
psql offered USING, WHERE, and SET in this context, but SET is not a valid possibility here. Seems to have been a thinko in commit f5ab0a14ea83eb6c which added DELETE's USING option.
2015-12-20Teach psql's tab completion to consider the entire input string.Tom Lane
Up to now, the tab completion logic has only examined the last few words of the current input line; "last few" being originally as few as four words, but lately up to nine words. Furthermore, it only looked at what libreadline considers the current line of input, which made it rather myopic if you split your command across lines. This was tolerable, sort of, so long as the match patterns were only designed to consider the last few words of input; but with the recent addition of HeadMatches() and Matches() matching rules, we really have to do better if we want those to behave sanely. Hence, change the code to break the entire line down into words, and to include any previous lines in the command buffer along with the active readline input buffer. This will be a little bit slower than the previous coding, but some measurements say that even a query of several thousand characters can be parsed in a hundred or so microseconds on modern machines; so it's really not going to be significant for interactive tab completion. To reduce the cost some, I arranged to avoid the per-word malloc calls that used to occur: all the words are now kept in one malloc'd buffer.
2015-12-19Adopt a more compact, less error-prone notation for tab completion code.Tom Lane
Replace tests like else if (pg_strcasecmp(prev4_wd, "CREATE") == 0 && pg_strcasecmp(prev3_wd, "TRIGGER") == 0 && (pg_strcasecmp(prev_wd, "BEFORE") == 0 || pg_strcasecmp(prev_wd, "AFTER") == 0)) with new notation like this: else if (TailMatches4("CREATE", "TRIGGER", MatchAny, "BEFORE|AFTER")) In addition, provide some macros COMPLETE_WITH_LISTn() to reduce the amount of clutter needed to specify a small number of predetermined completion alternatives. This makes the code substantially more compact: tab-complete.c gets over a thousand lines shorter in this patch, despite the addition of a couple of hundred lines of infrastructure for the new notations. The new way of specifying match rules seems a whole lot more readable and less error-prone, too. There's a lot more that could be done now to make matching faster and more reliable; for example I suspect that most of the TailMatches() rules should now be Matches() rules. That would allow them to be skipped after a single integer comparison if there aren't the right number of words on the line, and it would reduce the risk of unintended matches. But for now, (mostly) refrain from reworking any match rules in favor of just converting what we've got into the new notation. Thomas Munro, reviewed by Michael Paquier, some adjustments by me

2015-10-22Remove redundant CREATEUSER/NOCREATEUSER options in CREATE ROLE et al.Tom Lane
Once upon a time we did not have a separate CREATEROLE privilege, and CREATEUSER effectively meant SUPERUSER. When we invented CREATEROLE (in 8.1) we also added SUPERUSER so as to have a less confusing keyword for this role property. However, we left CREATEUSER in place as a deprecated synonym for SUPERUSER, because of backwards-compatibility concerns. It's still there and is still confusing people, as for example in bug #13694 from Justin Catterson. 9.6 will be ten years or so later, which surely ought to be long enough to end the deprecation and just remove these old keywords. Hence, do so.

2015-10-03Add CASCADE support for CREATE EXTENSION.Andres Freund
Without CASCADE, if an extension has an unfullfilled dependency on another extension, CREATE EXTENSION ERRORs out with "required extension ... is not installed". That is annoying, especially when that dependency is an implementation detail of the extension, rather than something the extension's user can make sense of. In addition to CASCADE this also includes a small set of regression tests around CREATE EXTENSION.

2015-09-05Rearrange the handling of error context reports.Tom Lane
Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT for messages emitted by RAISE commands. That was never more than a quick backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the RAISE is nested in several levels of function. What's more, it violated our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled on the client side not the server side. To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either always or only for non-error messages. Printing CONTEXT for errors only is now their default behavior. The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the regression test outputs are widespread. I had to edit some of the alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon find anything I fat-fingered. In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various help displays. Add some commentary about how to verify them. Pavel Stehule, reviewed by Petr Jelínek, Jeevan Chalke, and others

2015-07-25Redesign tablesample method API, and do extensive code review.Tom Lane
The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

2015-04-02psql: fix \connect with URIs and conninfo stringsAlvaro Herrera
This is the second try at this, after fcef1617295 failed miserably and had to be reverted: as it turns out, libpq cannot depend on libpgcommon after all. Instead of shuffling code in the master branch, make that one just like 9.4 and accept the duplication. (This was all my own mistake, not the patch submitter's). psql was already accepting conninfo strings as the first parameter in \connect, but the way it worked wasn't sane; some of the other parameters would get the previous connection's values, causing it to connect to a completely unexpected server or, more likely, not finding any server at all because of completely wrong combinations of parameters. Fix by explicitely checking for a conninfo-looking parameter in the dbname position; if one is found, use its complete specification rather than mix with the other arguments. Also, change tab-completion to not try to complete conninfo/URI-looking "dbnames" and document that conninfos are accepted as first argument. There was a weak consensus to backpatch this, because while the behavior of using the dbname as a conninfo is nowhere documented for \connect, it is reasonable to expect that it works because it does work in many other contexts. Therefore this is backpatched all the way back to 9.0. Author: David Fetter, Andrew Dunstan. Some editorialization by me (probably earning a Gierth's "Sloppy" badge in the process.)

2014-12-31Improve consistency of parsing of psql's magic variables.Tom Lane
For simple boolean variables such as ON_ERROR_STOP, psql has for a long time recognized variant spellings of "on" and "off" (such as "1"/"0"), and it also made a point of warning you if you'd misspelled the setting. But these conveniences did not exist for other keyword-valued variables. In particular, though ECHO_HIDDEN and ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK include "on" and "off" as possible values, none of the alternative spellings for those were recognized; and to make matters worse the code would just silently assume "on" was meant for any unrecognized spelling. Several people have reported getting bitten by this, so let's fix it. In detail, this patch: * Allows all spellings recognized by ParseVariableBool() for ECHO_HIDDEN and ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK. * Reports a warning for unrecognized values for COMP_KEYWORD_CASE, ECHO, ECHO_HIDDEN, HISTCONTROL, ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK, and VERBOSITY. * Recognizes all values for all these variables case-insensitively; previously there was a mishmash of case-sensitive and case-insensitive behaviors. Back-patch to all supported branches. There is a small risk of breaking existing scripts that were accidentally failing to malfunction; but the consensus is that the chance of detecting real problems and preventing future mistakes outweighs this.
