Description: PostgreSQL text representations parser
PostgreSQL can represent tuples and arrays in a text format that is almost
like CSV. Unfortunately this format has a number of gotchas which render
existing CSV-parsers useless. PGObject::Util::PseudoCSV provides basic
parsing functions to other programs for db interface purposes. With this
module you can both parse pseudocsv representations of tuples and arrays and
you can create them from a list.
.
The API's here assume you send one (and only one) pseudo-csv record to the
API at once. These may be nested, so a single tuple can contain arrays of
tuples which can contain arrays of tuples ad infinitum but the parsing only
goes one layer deep tuple-wise so that handling classes have an opportunity to
re-parse with appropriate type information. Naturally this has performance
implications, so depth in SQL structures passed should be reasonably limited.
