Message-ID: <1197609592.27815.408.camel@jdavis> (raw)
ruby-pg is now the official rubyforge project for the "postgres" ruby
gem. See the project here:
http://www.rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-pg
or install the gem directly:
# gem install --remote postgres
The previous project has gone unmaintained for a long time, which lead
to the fork.
This gem includes some important fixes, most notably the ability to
compile against PostgreSQL 8.3.
The gem contains two modules:
* 'postgres' -- require this module as before, you can use it without
making any changes to your application. This is essentially just a fork
from version 0.7.1.2006.04.06, but contains some important fixes,
including the ability to build against 8.3.
* 'pg' -- a new interface, designed to offer every feature available in
libpq to Ruby, with a better API. This module is simpler, cleaner, and
more portable. It is still unstable, so test before using.
PostgreSQL+Ruby users: please test and report any problems. I'd like to
make sure this is as stable as possible, and builds on all necessary
platforms.
Regards,
Jeff Davis
