Meta-commands handler for Postgres Database.

Project description

Meta-commands for Postgres

Build Status Latest Version

This package provides an API to execute meta-commands (AKA “special”, or “backslash commands”) on PostgreSQL.

Quick Start

This is a python package. It can be installed with:

$ pip install pgspecial

Usage

Once this library is included into your project, you will most likely use the following imports:

from pgspecial.main import PGSpecial
from pgspecial.namedqueries import NamedQueries

Then you will create and use an instance of PGSpecial:

pgspecial = PGSpecial()
for result in pgspecial.execute(cur, sql):
    # Do something

If you want to import named queries from an existing config file, it is convenient to initialize and keep around the class variable in NamedQueries:

from configobj import ConfigObj

NamedQueries.instance = NamedQueries.from_config(
    ConfigObj('~/.config_file_name'))

This library is used by the following projects:

pgcli: A REPL for Postgres.
