Overview

Simple set of rules for type casting common PostgreSQL types from Ruby to PostgreSQL.

OIDs of supported type casts are not hard-coded in the sources, but are retrieved from the PostgreSQL’s pg_type table in PG::BasicTypeMapBasedOnResult.new .

This class works equal to PG::BasicTypeMapForResults, but does not define decoders for the given result OIDs, but encoders. So it can be used to type cast field values based on the type OID retrieved by a separate SQL query.

PG::TypeMapByOid#build_column_map(result) can be used to generate a result independent PG::TypeMapByColumn type map, which can subsequently be used to cast query bind parameters or #put_copy_data fields.

Example:

conn.exec( "CREATE TEMP TABLE copytable (t TEXT, i INT, ai INT[])" )

# Retrieve table OIDs per empty result set.
res = conn.exec( "SELECT * FROM copytable LIMIT 0" )
tm = basic_type_mapping.build_column_map( res )
row_encoder = PG::TextEncoder::CopyRow.new type_map: tm

conn.copy_data( "COPY copytable FROM STDIN", row_encoder ) do |res|
  conn.put_copy_data ['a', 123, [5,4,3]]
end
