@majorheading Synopsis

@smallexample
AX_PGSQL_PRIV_ROOT(DB, USER, [HOST], [PASSWORD], [ACTION_IF_FAILED], [ACTION_IF_OK])
@end smallexample

@majorheading Description

This macro checks wether the given PostgreSQL user has root privileges
(can create and drop databases) It is recommended to first call
AX_CHECK_PGSQL_DB, this makes it easier to locate the cause of error.
The macro AX_PROG_PGCLIENT is required by this one.

The variable $pgclient_root_call is set for later use in Makefiles, if
you'd like to make use of this, you must do

@smallexample
  AC_SUBST(pgclient_root_call)
@end smallexample

after having called AX_CHECK_PGSQL_PRIV_ROOT. You can then do something
like the following in your Makefile.am:

@smallexample
  @@pgclient_root_call@@ -f file.sql
@end smallexample

If you want the user to set the data, you should support something like
these configure options:

@smallexample
  AC_ARG_WITH(pgsql-host,
          [  --with-pgsql-host=HOST               server is running on HOST @@<:@@local socket@@:>@@],
          [pg_host=$withval], [pg_host=])
@end smallexample

@smallexample
  AC_ARG_WITH(pgsql-db,
          [  --with-pgsql-db=DBNAME               use database DBNAME @@<:@@test@@:>@@],
          [pg_db=$withval], [pg_db=test])
@end smallexample

@smallexample
  AC_ARG_WITH(pgsql-root-user,
          [  --with-pgsql-root-user=USER          use user USER, must have root (all) privileges @@<:@@postgres@@:>@@],
          [pg_root_user=$withval], [pg_root_user=postgres])
@end smallexample

@smallexample
  AC_ARG_WITH(pgsql-password,
          [  --with-pgsql-password=PASSWORD       use password PASSWORD @@<:@@none@@:>@@],
          [pg_password=$withval], [pg_password=""])
@end smallexample

You can then call the macro like this:

@smallexample
  AX_CHECK_PGSQL_PRIV_ROOT([$pg_db], [$pg_root_user], [$pg_host], [$pg_password], [AC_MSG_ERROR([We need root privileges on database!])])
@end smallexample
