F.6. btree_gin

+ btree_gin provides sample GIN operator classes that + implement B-tree equivalent behavior for the data types + int2, int4, int8, float4, + float8, timestamp with time zone, + timestamp without time zone, time with time zone, + time without time zone, date, interval, + oid, money, "char", + varchar, text, bytea, bit, + varbit, macaddr, macaddr8, inet, + cidr, uuid, name, bool, + bpchar, and all enum types. +

+ In general, these operator classes will not outperform the equivalent + standard B-tree index methods, and they lack one major feature of the + standard B-tree code: the ability to enforce uniqueness. However, + they are useful for GIN testing and as a base for developing other + GIN operator classes. Also, for queries that test both a GIN-indexable + column and a B-tree-indexable column, it might be more efficient to create + a multicolumn GIN index that uses one of these operator classes than to create + two separate indexes that would have to be combined via bitmap ANDing. +

+ This module is considered trusted, that is, it can be + installed by non-superusers who have CREATE privilege + on the current database. +

F.6.1. Example Usage

+CREATE TABLE test (a int4);
+-- create index
+CREATE INDEX testidx ON test USING GIN (a);
+-- query
+SELECT * FROM test WHERE a < 10;
