Обсуждение: Patch for automating partitions in PostgreSQL 8.4 Beta 2
Hi,
PFA patch, readme for automating partitions in PostgreSQL 8.4 Beta 2 and testcases.
The patch automates table partitioning to support Range and Hash partitions. Please refer to attached readme file for further details.
The syntax used conforms to most of the suggestions mentioned in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2008-01/msg00413.php, barring the following:
-- Specification of partition names is optional. System will be able to generate partition names in such cases.
-- Sub partitioning
Regards,

Kedar.

Kedar, Added to first CommitFest of 8.5. Thanks for the nice test case. Folks who are not busy with 8.4 are urged to test this as soon as you can. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. www.pgexperts.com

Hi,
Some comments based on a brief glance of the patch:
- The logic to execute the partition triggers last still needs some more work IMHO. Relying on just the names might not get accepted. I think you should pay attention to Andrew Dunstan's suggestion in an earlier mail to have tgkind enumerations to generalize the same or discuss it further.
"the scheme should turn tgisconstraint into a multi-valued item (tgkind: 'u' = userland, 'c'= constraint, 'p' = partition or some such)."
- Similarly, assigning "of_relname_oid" names to overflow tables also might not work. The best way ahead could be to invent a new relkind RELKIND_OVERFLOW to handle it. Or maybe we can have a new schema pg_overflow to store the overflow relation with the same name (suffixed with _overflow to make it clearer) as the parent relation too. The relkind solution might be cleaner though. This might need further discussion. In general, it is definitely not a bad idea to discuss such sub-problems on the list :)
- Am I reading the patch correctly that you do not end up creating indexes on the children tables? That is a big problem!
- You can remove the remnants of the first patch like the MutateColumnRefs() function, for example (I agree this is WIP, but unwanted/unused functions unnecessarily add to the size). With large patches, the more precise the patch, the better it will be for reviewers/readers.
Great work all in all!
Regards,
Nikhils

Second, isn't there any better way to do it, than in shell script ? Shouldn't that bit be called on make check, not on build (make).?
Hi Nikhil,
I am sorry for the late reply. :(
Please find inline my comments.

Yes. I am working to integrate some of the comments received for the patch. I would be able to post latest patch in the next week.

Anyone knows what's the latest on that patch ? To be honest, this was the thing that I was looking forward most in 8.5 ... (and probably not only me alone).

We are also interested in integrating our autopartitioning patch for COPY with that implementation. I can help with the partitioning implementation and/or testing of that feature since this is of interest for Aster too. Emmanuel -- Emmanuel Cecchet Aster Data Systems Web: http://www.asterdata.com
