Meta-commands for Postgres
--------------------------
|BuildStatus| |PyPI|
This package provides an API to execute meta-commands (AKA "special", or
"backslash commands") on PostgreSQL.
Quick Start
-----------
This is a python package. It can be installed with:
::
$ pip install pgspecial
Usage
-----
Once this library is included into your project, you will most likely use the
following imports:
.. code-block:: python
from pgspecial.main import PGSpecial
from pgspecial.namedqueries import NamedQueries
Then you will create and use an instance of PGSpecial:
.. code-block:: python
pgspecial = PGSpecial()
for result in pgspecial.execute(cur, sql):
# Do something
If you want to import named queries from an existing config file, it is
convenient to initialize and keep around the class variable in
``NamedQueries``:
.. code-block:: python
from configobj import ConfigObj
NamedQueries.instance = NamedQueries.from_config(
ConfigObj('~/.config_file_name'))

If you're interested in contributing to this project, first of all I would like
to extend my heartfelt gratitude. I've written a small doc to describe how to
get this running in a development setup.

Projects using it:
------------------
This library is used by the following projects:
pgcli_: A REPL for Postgres.
`ipython-sql`_: %%sql magic for IPython
OmniDB_: An web tool for database management
If you find this module useful and include it in your project, I'll be happy
to know about it and list it here.
