View Source Vtc.Ecto.Postgres.PgFramestamp.Range.Migrations (vtc v0.14.3)
Migrations for adding framestamp range types, functions and constraints to a Postgres database.
Link to this section Summary
Full
Adds raw SQL queries to a migration for creating the database types, associated functions, casts, operators, and operator families.
Pg Types
Creates function schema as described by the Configuring Database Objects section above.
Adds framestamp_fastrange
RANGE type that uses double-precision floats under the
hood.
Adds framestamp_range
RANGE type.
There is a limitation with PL/pgSQL where shell-types cannot be used as either arguments OR return types.
Pg Functions
Creates framestamp_fastrange(:framestamp_range)
to construct fast ranges out
of the slower framestamp_range
type.
Creates framestamp_fastrange(:framestamp, framestamp)
to construct fast ranges out
of framestamps.
Pg Private Functions
Creates framestamp.__private__canonical(a, b, type)
used by the range
constructor to normalize ranges.
Creates framestamp.__private__subtype_diff(a, b)
used by the range type for more
efficient GiST indexes.

@type raw_sql() :: String.t()
Indicates returned string is an SQL command.

Adds raw SQL queries to a migration for creating the database types, associated functions, casts, operators, and operator families.
This migration includes all migrations under the Pg Types, Pg Operator Classes, Pg Functions, and Pg Private Functions, headings.
Safe to run multiple times when new functionality is added in updates to this library. Existing values will be skipped.
Individual migration functions return raw sql commands in an {up_command, down_command} tuple.
options
Options
include
: A list of migration functions to include. If not set, all sub-migrations will be included.exclude
: A list of migration functions to exclude. If not set, no sub-migrations will be excluded.
Required Permissions
To add the
framestamp_range
canonical, function, we must directly add it to theframestamp_range
type in thepg_catalog
table. In most databases, this will require elevated permissions. See theinject_canonical_function/0
for more information on why this is required.You can choose to skip this step if you wish by setting the
inject_canonical?
op to false, but operations that require discreet nudging of in-and-out points will not return correct results, and ranges with different upper/lower bound types will not be comparable.
types-created
Types Created
Calling this macro creates the following type definitions:
CREATE TYPE framestamp_range AS RANGE (
subtype = framestamp,
subtype_diff = framestamp_range_private.subtype_diff
canonical = framestamp_range_private.canonical
);
CREATE TYPE framestamp_fastrange AS RANGE (
subtype = double precision,
subtype_diff = float8mi
);
schemas-created
Schemas Created
Up to two schemas are created as detailed by the Configuring Database Objects section below.
configuring-database-objects
Configuring Database Objects
To change where supporting functions are created, add the following to your Repo configuration:
config :vtc, Vtc.Test.Support.Repo,
adapter: Ecto.Adapters.Postgres,
...
vtc: [
framestamp_range: [
functions_schema: :framestamp_range,
functions_prefix: "framestamp_range"
]
]
Option definitions are as follows:
functions_schema
: The postgres schema to store framestamp_range-related custom functions.functions_prefix
: A prefix to add before all functions. Defaults to "framestamp_range" for any function created in the:public
schema, and "" otherwise.

Link to this section Pg Types
Creates function schema as described by the Configuring Database Objects section above.
Adds framestamp_fastrange
RANGE type that uses double-precision floats under the
hood.
Adds framestamp_range
RANGE type.
There is a limitation with PL/pgSQL where shell-types cannot be used as either arguments OR return types.
However, in the user-facing API flow, the canonical function must be created before the range type with a shell type, then passed to the range type upon construction. Further, ALTER TYPE does not work on range functions out-of-the gate, so we cannot add it later... through the public API.
Instead this function edits the pg_catalog directly and we supply the function after-the-fact ourselves. Since this will all happen in a single transaction it should be functionally equivalent to creating it on the type as part of the initial call.
Permissions
In most databases, directly editing the pg_catalog will require elevated permissions.
Link to this section Pg Functions
Creates framestamp_fastrange(:framestamp_range)
to construct fast ranges out
of the slower framestamp_range
type.
Creates framestamp_fastrange(:framestamp, framestamp)
to construct fast ranges out
of framestamps.
Link to this section Pg Private Functions
Creates framestamp.__private__canonical(a, b, type)
used by the range
constructor to normalize ranges.
Output ranges have an inclusive lower bound and an exclusive upper bound.
Creates framestamp.__private__subtype_diff(a, b)
used by the range type for more
efficient GiST indexes.
