Description¶ ↑

Pg is the Ruby interface to the PostgreSQL RDBMS.

It works with PostgreSQL 8.4 and later.

A small example usage:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'pg'

# Output a table of current connections to the DB
conn = PG.connect( dbname: 'sales' )
conn.exec( "SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity" ) do |result|
  puts "     PID | User             | Query"
result.each do |row|
    puts " %7d | %-16s | %s " %
      row.values_at('procpid', 'usename', 'current_query')
  end
end

Build Status¶ ↑

<img src=“https://travis-ci.org/ged/ruby-pg.png?branch=master” alt=“Build Status” />

Requirements¶ ↑

• Ruby 1.9.3-p392, or 2.0.0-p0.

• PostgreSQL 8.4.x or later (with headers, -dev packages, etc).

It may work with earlier versions of Ruby/PostgreSQL as well, but those are not regularly tested.

How To Install¶ ↑

Install via RubyGems:

gem install pg

You may need to specify the path to the ‘pg_config’ program installed with Postgres:

gem install pg -- --with-pg-config=<path to pg_config>

If you’re installing via Bundler, you can provide compile hints like so:

bundle config build.pg --with-pg-config=<path to pg_config>

See README-OS_X.rdoc for more information about installing under MacOS X, and README-Windows.rdoc for Windows build/installation instructions.

There’s also a Google+ group and a mailing list if you get stuck, or just want to chat about something.

Contributing¶ ↑

To report bugs, suggest features, or check out the source with Mercurial, check out the project page. If you prefer Git, there’s also a Github mirror.

After checking out the source, run:

$ rake newb

This task will install any missing dependencies, run the tests/specs, and generate the API documentation.
