DbMover/PgSQL
=============

[](#dbmoverpgsql)

PostgreSQL vendor-specific metapackage for DbMover

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### Composer (recommended)

[](#composer-recommended)

```
$ composer require dbmover/pgsql
```

Setup and running
-----------------

[](#setup-and-running)

See [the Dbmover README](http://dbmover.monomelodies.nl/core/docs/) for instructions on setting up and running DbMover.

Add the `Dbmover\Pgsql\Plugin` meta-plugin to simply use the defaults.

PostgreSQL specific notes
-------------------------

[](#postgresql-specific-notes)

### Serial primary keys

[](#serial-primary-keys)

PostgreSQL uses the custom `SERIAL` datatype for defining an auto-incrementing unique column to be used as a primary key. However, this is not an *actual* datatype but rather shorthand for a more verbose manual command. So (unsurprisingly) DbMover doesn't know what to do with it. Write the more verbose full commands instead:

```
CREATE SEQUENCE IF NOT EXISTS foo_id_seq;
CREATE TABLE foo (
    id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT NEXTVAL('foo_id_seq'::regclass)
);
```

### Database users and privileges

[](#database-users-and-privileges)

PostgreSQL's `INFORMATION_SCHEMA` aliases contain more data than you would define in a schema file, especially for routines (its native functions are also exposed there). You should always run DbMover as a user with privileges for only the database being migrated. All plugins try their best to only work on objects defined as `public`, but better safe than sorry.

TODO/wishlist
-------------

[](#todowishlist)

### Support for enums

[](#support-for-enums)

These are implemented in Postgres as a sort of custom data types. Support is on the roadmap, but since I personally never use them it's not *very* high on my (annoyingly long) list of priorities :)
