An elephant never forgets.

A toy PostgreSQL extension and example.

Installation

Install with PGXS like any PostgreSQL extension:

make install

Typically you'll need to use sudo and add pg_config to the PATH, e.g. for RPM-based distros using yum.postgresql.org packages:

PATH=/usr/pgsql-9.5/bin:$PATH make
sudo PATH=/usr/pgsql-9.5/bin:$PATH make install

You may have to install a development package like postgresql95-devel (Fedora/RHEL/CentOS) or postgresql-server-dev-9.5 (Debian/Ubuntu).

Usage

CREATE EXTENSION pg_elephant;

SELECT pg_elephant();
