Re: "timer" script from SAMS book or equivalent?

My Ruby version is found below. Note it requires the postgres-pr ruby driver. Also note I didn't really ruby-ize it to much...for the most part it's a one-to-one translation.

One different thing to note...this script expects you to have postgres-pr installed via rubygems. You can modify the require statements (actually just comment out the rubygems line) if you're is installed in a non-rubygems way.

Also note, this requires you to define your connection parameters in env variables, which works in my situation.

PG_TIMER_DB - name of the database
PG_TIMER_USER - name of database user
PG_TIMER_PASS - password of database user
PG_TIMER_URI - connection uri that postgres-pr understands.
Examples:
tcp://localhost:5432
unix:/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432

Hope it helps someone else.
