Task Details

Extend SQLSchemaManager to support PostgreSQL

Create a new class PostgreSQLSchemaManager by extending SQLSchemaManager and implementing all necessary abstract classes

Research and add Maximum column Precision

Following are the Maximum column precisions we might need to establish:
(All constants are defined in PostgreSQLAdapter class)

  • DEFAULT_FETCH_SIZE
  • MAX_CHAR_PRECISION
  • MAX_VARCHAR_PRECISION
  • MAX_BINARY_PRECISION
  • MAX_VARBINARY_PRECISION
  • MAX_REAL_PRECISION
  • TIMESTAMP_FORMAT_SQL
  • TIMESTAMP_FORMAT

Figure out Data Type Mapping

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/datatype.html

  • Go over all data types offered in PostgreSQL
  • Map types defined in Primitive class

Implement appendColumnType() method

This method appends a table column type declaration to a string buffer.

  • use logic and mapping to append required column data types to incoming string.
  • Test it
