postgresql TODO =============== Bugs: - pg_createcluster with existing cluster: respect symlinks to shared postgresql.conf files, never remove symlinks in already existing cluster dirs - Clean up at purging if /etc/ is there without /var, or vice versa Transition bugs: Missing selftest: - --force option for pg_ctlcluster Important features: Wishlist: - Add pg_conf to change startup and possibly other things - add program for web applications, which configure pg_hba.conf: pg_hba add|remove|test [options] yourwebappdb yourwebappuser Options: --cluster: self-explanatory, defaults to default cluster --ip: IP and netmask for host socket; if not given, defaults to Unix socket (local) --method: defaults to "md5" for TCP connections, and "ident sameuser" for Unix socket connections --force-ssl: If given, create a "hostssl" entry, otherwise a "host" entry For remove, only --cluster is allowed; it will remove all hba entries that refer to the given db/user pair. test checks whether the given connection is allowed; if so, it exits with 0, otherwise it prints the required pg_hba.conf line to stdout and exits with 1. If pg_hba.conf has a scrambled format that cannot be parsed by pg_*_hba, the scripts exit with 2. Add libnet-cidr-perl dependency!
