266 ##2014-09-03 - Supported Release 4.0.0
269 This release removes the uninstall ability from the module, removes the firewall
270 management, overhauls all of the acceptance testing, as well as adds better
271 support for SuSE and Fedora.
273 ###Backwards Incompatible changes.
275 - Uninstall code removal.
276 - Firewall management for Postgres.
277 - Set manage_pg_ident_conf to true.
279 ####Uninstallation removal
281 We rely heavily on the ability to uninstall and reinstall postgres throughout
282 our testing code, testing features like "can I move from the distribution
283 packages to the upstream packages through the module" and over time we've
284 learnt that the uninstall code simply doesn't work a lot of the time. It
285 leaves traces of postgres behind or fails to remove certain packages on Ubuntu,
286 and generally causes bits to be left on your system that you didn't expect.
288 When we then reinstall things fail because it's not a true clean slate, and
289 this causes us enormous problems during test. We've spent weeks and months
290 working on these tests and they simply don't hold up well across the full range
293 Due to all these problems we've decided to take a stance on uninstalling in
294 general. We feel that in 2014 it's completely reasonable and normal to have a
295 good provisioning pipeline combined with your configuration management and the
296 "correct" way to uninstall a fully installed service like postgresql is to
297 simply reprovision the server without it in the first place. As a general rule
298 this is how I personally like to work and I think is a good practice.
300 ####I'm not OK with this!
302 We understand that there are environments and situations in which it's not easy
303 to do that. What if you accidently deployed Postgres on 100,000 nodes? In the
304 future we're going to take a look at building some example 'profiles' to be
305 found under examples/ within this module that can uninstall postgres on popular
306 platforms. These can be modified and used in your specific case to uninstall
307 postgresql. They will be much more brute force and reliant on deleting entire
308 directories and require you to do more work up front in specifying where things
309 are installed but we think it'll prove to be a much cleaner mechanism for this
310 kind of thing rather than trying to weave it into the main module logic itself.
313 - Removal of uninstall.
314 - Removal of firewall management.
315 - Tests ported to rspec3.
316 - Acceptance tests rewritten.
317 - Add a defined type for creating database schemas.

347 ##2014-04-14 - Supported Release 3.4.0
350 This feature rolls up several important features, the biggest being PostGIS
351 handling and allowing `port` to be set on postgresql::server in order to
352 change the port that Postgres listens on. We've added support for RHEL7

358 - Added `service_ensure` for allowing control of services.
359 - Added `postgis_version` and postgis class for installing postgis.

399 ##2014-01-28 - Version 3.3.0
403 This release rolls up a bunch of bugfixes our users have found and fixed for
404 us over the last few months. This improves things for 9.1 users, and makes
405 this module usable on FreeBSD.
407 This release is dedicated to 'bma', who's suffering with Puppet 3.4.1 issues
408 thanks to Puppet::Util::SUIDManager.run_and_capture.
411 - Add lc_ config entry settings
412 - Can pass template at database creation.
413 - Add FreeBSD support.
414 - Add support for customer `xlogdir` parameter.

438 - Add versions for Ubuntu 13.10 and 14.04.
439 - Use default_database in validate_db_connection instead of a hardcoded
441 - Add globals/params layering for default_database.
442 - Allow specification of default database name.
445 - Fixes to the README.
448 ##2013-10-25 - Version 3.1.0
452 This is a minor feature and bug fix release.
454 Firstly, the postgresql_psql type now includes a new parameter `search_path` which is equivalent to using `set search_path` which allows you to change the default schema search path.
456 The default version of Fedora 17 has now been added, so that Fedora 17 users can enjoy the module.
458 And finally we've extended the capabilities of the defined type postgresql::validate_db_connection so that now it can handle retrying and sleeping between retries. This feature has been monopolized to fix a bug we were seeing with startup race conditions, but it can also be used by remote systems to 'wait' for PostgreSQL to start before their Puppet run continues.
461 - Defined $default_version for Fedora 17 (Bret Comnes)
462 - add search_path attribute to postgresql_psql resource (Jeremy Kitchen)
463 - (GH-198) Add wait and retry capability to validate_db_connection (Ken Barber)

495 A few bugfixes have been found since -rc1.
498 - Special case for $datadir on Amazon
499 - Fix documentation about username/password for the postgresql_hash function
502 ##2013-10-01 - Version 3.0.0-rc1
506 Version 3 was a major rewrite to fix some internal dependency issues, and to
507 make the new Public API more clear. As a consequence a lot of things have
508 changed for version 3 and older revisions that we will try to outline here.
510 (NOTE: The format of this CHANGELOG differs to normal in an attempt to
511 explain the scope of changes)
513 * Server specific objects now moved under `postgresql::server::` namespace:
515 To restructure server specific elements under the `postgresql::server::`
516 namespaces the following objects were renamed as such:
518 `postgresql::database` -> `postgresql::server::database`
519 `postgresql::database_grant` -> `postgresql::server::database_grant`
520 `postgresql::db` -> `postgresql::server::db`
521 `postgresql::grant` -> `postgresql::server::grant`
522 `postgresql::pg_hba_rule` -> `postgresql::server::pg_hba_rule`
523 `postgresql::plperl` -> `postgresql::server::plperl`
524 `postgresql::contrib` -> `postgresql::server::contrib`
525 `postgresql::role` -> `postgresql::server::role`
526 `postgresql::table_grant` -> `postgresql::server::table_grant`
527 `postgresql::tablespace` -> `postgresql::server::tablespace`
529 * New `postgresql::server::config_entry` resource for managing configuration:
531 Previously we used the `file_line` resource to modify `postgresql.conf`. This
532 new revision now adds a new resource named `postgresql::server::config_entry`
533 for managing this file. For example:
536 postgresql::server::config_entry { 'check_function_bodies':
541 If you were using `file_line` for this purpose, you should change to this new
544 * `postgresql_puppet_extras.conf` has been removed:
546 Now that we have a methodology for managing `postgresql.conf`, and due to
547 concerns over the file management methodology using an `exec { 'touch ...': }`
548 as a way to create an empty file the existing postgresql\_puppet\_extras.conf
549 file is no longer managed by this module.
551 If you wish to recreate this methodology yourself, use this pattern:
554 class { 'postgresql::server': }
556 $extras = "/tmp/include.conf"
559 content => 'max_connections = 123',
560 notify => Class['postgresql::server::service'],
562 postgresql::server::config_entry { 'include':
567 * All uses of the parameter `charset` changed to `encoding`:
569 Since PostgreSQL uses the terminology `encoding` not `charset` the parameter
570 has been made consisent across all classes and resources.
572 * The `postgresql` base class is no longer how you set globals:
574 The old global override pattern was less then optimal so it has been fixed,
575 however we decided to demark this properly by specifying these overrides in
576 the class `postgresql::global`. Consult the documentation for this class now
577 to see what options are available.
579 Also, some parameter elements have been moved between this and the
580 `postgresql::server` class where it made sense.
582 * `config_hash` parameter collapsed for the `postgresql::server` class:
584 Because the `config_hash` was really passing data through to what was in
585 effect an internal class (`postgresql::config`). And since we don't want this
586 kind of internal exposure the parameters were collapsed up into the
587 `postgresql::server` class directly.
589 * Lots of changes to 'private' or 'undocumented' classes:
591 If you were using these before, these have changed names. You should only use
592 what is documented in this README.md, and if you don't have what you need you
593 should raise a patch to add that feature to a public API. All internal classes
594 now have a comment at the top indicating them as private to make sure the
595 message is clear that they are not supported as Public API.
597 * `pg_hba_conf_defaults` parameter included to turn off default pg\_hba rules:
599 The defaults should be good enough for most cases (if not raise a bug) but if
600 you simply need an escape hatch, this setting will turn off the defaults. If
601 you want to do this, it may affect the rest of the module so make sure you
602 replace the rules with something that continues operation.
604 * `postgresql::database_user` has now been removed:
606 Use `postgresql::server::role` instead.
608 * `postgresql::psql` resource has now been removed:
610 Use `postgresql_psql` instead. In the future we may recreate this as a wrapper
611 to add extra capability, but it will not match the old behaviour.
613 * `postgresql_default_version` fact has now been removed:
615 It didn't make sense to have this logic in a fact any more, the logic has been
616 moved into `postgresql::params`.
618 * `ripienaar/concat` is no longer used, instead we use `puppetlabs/concat`:
620 The older concat module is now deprecated and moved into the
621 `puppetlabs/concat` namespace. Functionality is more or less identical, but
622 you may need to intervene during the installing of this package - as both use
623 the same `concat` namespace.
626 ##2013-09-09 Release 2.5.0
630 The focus of this release is primarily to capture the fixes done to the
631 types and providers to make sure refreshonly works properly and to set
632 the stage for the large scale refactoring work of 3.0.0.
638 - Use boolean for refreshonly.
639 - Fix postgresql::plperl documentation.
640 - Add two missing parameters to config::beforeservice
644 ##2013-08-01 Release 2.4.1
648 This minor bugfix release solves an idempotency issue when using plain text
649 passwords for the password_hash parameter for the postgresql::role defined
650 type. Without this, users would continually see resource changes everytime
654 - Alter role call not idempotent with cleartext passwords (Ken Barber)
657 ##2013-07-19 Release 2.4.0
661 This updates adds the ability to change permissions on tables, create template
662 databases from normal databases, manage PL-Perl's postgres package, and
663 disable the management of `pg_hba.conf`.
666 - Add `postgresql::table_grant` defined resource
667 - Add `postgresql::plperl` class
668 - Add `manage_pg_hba_conf` parameter to the `postgresql::config` class
669 - Add `istemplate` parameter to the `postgresql::database` define
672 - Update `postgresql::role` class to be able to update roles when modified
673 instead of only on creation.
675 - Fix documentation of `postgresql::database_grant`
680 This feature release includes the following changes:
682 * Add a new parameter `owner` to the `database` type. This can be used to
683 grant ownership of a new database to a specific user. (Bruno Harbulot)
684 * Add support for operating systems other than Debian/RedHat, as long as the
685 user supplies custom values for all of the required paths, package names, etc.
687 * Improved integration testing (Ken Barber)
692 This release fixes a bug whereby one of our shell commands (psql) were not ran from a globally accessible directory. This was causing permission denied errors when the command attempted to change user without changing directory.
694 Users of previous versions might have seen this error:
696 Error: Error executing SQL; psql returned 256: 'could not change directory to "/root"
698 This patch should correct that.
702 * Set /tmp as default CWD for postgresql_psql
707 This feature release introduces a number of new features and bug fixes.
709 First of all it includes a new class named `postgresql::python` which provides you with a convenient way of install the python Postgresql client libraries.
711 class { 'postgresql::python':
714 You are now able to use `postgresql::database_user` without having to specify a password_hash, useful for different authentication mechanisms that do not need passwords (ie. cert, local etc.).
716 We've also provided a lot more advanced custom parameters now for greater control of your Postgresql installation. Consult the class documentation for PuppetDB in the README.
718 This release in particular has largely been contributed by the community members below, a big thanks to one and all.
720 #### Detailed Changes
722 * Add support for psycopg installation (Flaper Fesp and Dan Prince)
723 * Added default PostgreSQL version for Ubuntu 13.04 (Kamil Szymanski)
724 * Add ability to create users without a password (Bruno Harbulot)

729 * Allow to set connection for noew role (Kamil Szymanski)
730 * Fix pg_hba_rule for postgres local access (Kamil Szymanski)
731 * Fix versions for travis-ci (Ken Barber)
732 * Add replication support (Jordi Boggiano)
733 * Cleaned up and added unit tests (Ken Barber)
734 * Generalization to provide more flexability in postgresql configuration (Karel Brezina)
735 * Create dependent directory for sudoers so tests work on Centos 5 (Ken Barber)
736 * Allow SQL commands to be run against a specific DB (Carlos Villela)
737 * Drop trailing comma to support Puppet 2.6 (Michael Arnold)
743 This release provides a bug fix for RHEL 5 and Centos 5 systems, or specifically systems using PostgreSQL 8.1 or older. On those systems one would have received the error:
745 Error: Could not start Service[postgresqld]: Execution of ‘/sbin/service postgresql start’ returned 1:
747 And the postgresql log entry:
749 FATAL: unrecognized configuration parameter "include"
751 This bug is due to a new feature we had added in 2.1.0, whereby the `include` directive in `postgresql.conf` was not compatible. As a work-around we have added checks in our code to make sure systems running PostgreSQL 8.1 or older do not have this directive added.
753 #### Detailed Changes
755 2013-01-21 - Ken Barber <ken@bob.sh>
756 * Only install `include` directive and included file on PostgreSQL >= 8.2
757 * Add system tests for Centos 5
762 This release is primarily a feature release, introducing some new helpful constructs to the module.
764 For starters, we've added the line `include 'postgresql_conf_extras.conf'` by default so extra parameters not managed by the module can be added by other tooling or by Puppet itself. This provides a useful escape-hatch for managing settings that are not currently managed by the module today.
766 We've added a new defined resource for managing your tablespace, so you can now create new tablespaces using the syntax:
768 postgresql::tablespace { 'dbspace':
769 location => '/srv/dbspace',
772 We've added a locale parameter to the `postgresql` class, to provide a default. Also the parameter has been added to the `postgresql::database` and `postgresql::db` defined resources for changing the locale per database:
774 postgresql::db { 'mydatabase':
776 password => 'mypassword',
781 There is a new class for installing the necessary packages to provide the PostgreSQL JDBC client jars:
783 class { 'postgresql::java': }
785 And we have a brand new defined resource for managing fine-grained rule sets within your pg_hba.conf access lists:
787 postgresql::pg_hba { 'Open up postgresql for access from 200.1.2.0/24':
791 address => '200.1.2.0/24',
792 auth_method => 'md5',
795 Finally, we've also added Travis-CI support and unit tests to help us iterate faster with tests to reduce regression. The current URL for these tests is here: https://travis-ci.org/puppetlabs/puppet-postgresql. Instructions on how to run the unit tests available are provided in the README for the module.
797 A big thanks to all those listed below who made this feature release possible :-).

856 Many thanks to the following people who contributed patches to this
876 * William Van Hevelingen
880 * Add support for versions of postgres other than the system default version
881 (which varies depending on OS distro). This includes optional support for
882 automatically managing the package repo for the "official" postgres yum/apt
883 repos. (Major thanks to Etienne Pelletier <epelletier@maestrodev.com> and
884 Ken Barber <ken@bob.sh> for their tireless efforts and patience on this
885 feature set!) For example usage see `tests/official-postgresql-repos.pp`.
887 * Add some support for Debian Wheezy and Ubuntu Quantal
889 * Add new `postgres_psql` type with a Ruby provider, to replace the old
890 exec-based `psql` type. This gives us much more flexibility around
891 executing SQL statements and controlling their logging / reports output.
893 * Major refactor of the "spec" tests--which are actually more like
894 acceptance tests. We now support testing against multiple OS distros
895 via vagrant, and the framework is in place to allow us to very easily add
896 more distros. Currently testing against Cent6 and Ubuntu 10.04.
898 * Fixed a bug that was preventing multiple databases from being owned by the
900 (9adcd182f820101f5e4891b9f2ff6278dfad495c - Etienne Pelletier <epelletier@maestrodev.com>)
