Hi,
Background info first: PL/Ruby was originally maintained by Guy Decoux,
who passed away in 2008: https://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/166658 . After
his death, Akinori MUSHA forked the project and maintained it until
2010: https://github.com/knu/postgresql-plruby . Last release was on Jan
2010, and recent distros started throwing build errors.
I was having similar build issues while trying to RPMify PL/Ruby, and
finally stepped up the plate and tried to fix those build issues by
forking the project:
https://github.com/devrimgunduz/postgresql-plruby/
I mainly applied patches from Fedora, and also did some basic cleanup.
However, I don't know Ruby and have limited C skills, so I need some
help on these:
* Complete the extension support: I committed initial infrastructure for
it, but I don't think it is ready yet.
* Fix the FIXME:
https://github.com/devrimgunduz/postgresql-plruby/blob/master/src/plpl.c#L844
* Documentation review and update: The recent example is against
PostgreSQL 8.0. A recent Ruby example would be good, and also we need
updates for creating the language.
Any contributions are welcome. I recently released 0.5.5 that at least
is ready for testing.
I want to remind that I am not a Ruby guy, so this is really a community
stuff for me.
Thanks by now.
Regards,
