##2014-09-03 - Supported Release 4.0.0 ###Summary

This release removes the uninstall ability from the module, removes the firewall management, overhauls all of the acceptance testing, as well as adds better support for SuSE and Fedora.

###Backwards Incompatible changes.

  • Uninstall code removal.
  • Firewall management for Postgres.
  • Set manage_pg_ident_conf to true.

####Uninstallation removal

We rely heavily on the ability to uninstall and reinstall postgres throughout our testing code, testing features like "can I move from the distribution packages to the upstream packages through the module" and over time we've learnt that the uninstall code simply doesn't work a lot of the time. It leaves traces of postgres behind or fails to remove certain packages on Ubuntu, and generally causes bits to be left on your system that you didn't expect.

When we then reinstall things fail because it's not a true clean slate, and this causes us enormous problems during test. We've spent weeks and months working on these tests and they simply don't hold up well across the full range of PE platforms.

Due to all these problems we've decided to take a stance on uninstalling in general. We feel that in 2014 it's completely reasonable and normal to have a good provisioning pipeline combined with your configuration management and the "correct" way to uninstall a fully installed service like postgresql is to simply reprovision the server without it in the first place. As a general rule this is how I personally like to work and I think is a good practice.

####I'm not OK with this!

We understand that there are environments and situations in which it's not easy to do that. What if you accidently deployed Postgres on 100,000 nodes? In the future we're going to take a look at building some example 'profiles' to be found under examples/ within this module that can uninstall postgres on popular platforms. These can be modified and used in your specific case to uninstall postgresql. They will be much more brute force and reliant on deleting entire directories and require you to do more work up front in specifying where things are installed but we think it'll prove to be a much cleaner mechanism for this kind of thing rather than trying to weave it into the main module logic itself.

####Features

  • Removal of uninstall.
  • Removal of firewall management.
  • Tests ported to rspec3.
  • Acceptance tests rewritten.
  • Add a defined type for creating database schemas.
  • Add a pg_ident_rule defined type.
  • Set manage_pg_ident_conf to true.
  • Manage pg_ident.conf by default.
  • Improve selinux support for tablespace.
  • Remove deprecation warnings.
  • Support changing PGDATA on RedHat.
  • Add SLES 11 support.

####Bugfixes

  • Link pg_config binary into /usr/bin.
  • Fix fedora support by using systemd.
  • Initdb should create xlogdir if set.
  • Use a regular expression to match the major OS version on Ubuntu.

##2013-10-25 - Version 3.1.0

###Summary

This is a minor feature and bug fix release.

Firstly, the postgresql_psql type now includes a new parameter search_path which is equivalent to using set search_path which allows you to change the default schema search path.

The default version of Fedora 17 has now been added, so that Fedora 17 users can enjoy the module.

And finally we've extended the capabilities of the defined type postgresql::validate_db_connection so that now it can handle retrying and sleeping between retries. This feature has been monopolized to fix a bug we were seeing with startup race conditions, but it can also be used by remote systems to 'wait' for PostgreSQL to start before their Puppet run continues.

####Features

  • Defined $default_version for Fedora 17 (Bret Comnes)
  • add search_path attribute to postgresql_psql resource (Jeremy Kitchen)
  • (GH-198) Add wait and retry capability to validate_db_connection (Ken Barber)

  • Fix documentation about username/password for the postgresql_hash function

##2013-10-01 - Version 3.0.0-rc1

###Summary

Version 3 was a major rewrite to fix some internal dependency issues, and to make the new Public API more clear. As a consequence a lot of things have changed for version 3 and older revisions that we will try to outline here.

(NOTE: The format of this CHANGELOG differs to normal in an attempt to explain the scope of changes)

  • Server specific objects now moved under postgresql::server:: namespace:

To restructure server specific elements under the postgresql::server:: namespaces the following objects were renamed as such:

postgresql::database -> postgresql::server::database postgresql::database_grant -> postgresql::server::database_grant postgresql::db -> postgresql::server::db postgresql::grant -> postgresql::server::grant postgresql::pg_hba_rule -> postgresql::server::pg_hba_rule postgresql::plperl -> postgresql::server::plperl postgresql::contrib -> postgresql::server::contrib postgresql::role -> postgresql::server::role postgresql::table_grant -> postgresql::server::table_grant postgresql::tablespace -> postgresql::server::tablespace

  • New postgresql::server::config_entry resource for managing configuration:

Previously we used the file_line resource to modify postgresql.conf. This new revision now adds a new resource named postgresql::server::config_entry for managing this file. For example:

    postgresql::server::config_entry { 'check_function_bodies':
      value => 'off',
    }

If you were using file_line for this purpose, you should change to this new methodology.

  • postgresql_puppet_extras.conf has been removed:

Now that we have a methodology for managing postgresql.conf, and due to concerns over the file management methodology using an exec { 'touch ...': } as a way to create an empty file the existing postgresql_puppet_extras.conf file is no longer managed by this module.

If you wish to recreate this methodology yourself, use this pattern:

    class { 'postgresql::server': }

    $extras = "/tmp/include.conf"

    file { $extras:
      content => 'max_connections = 123',
      notify  => Class['postgresql::server::service'],
    }->
    postgresql::server::config_entry { 'include':
      value   => $extras,
    }
  • All uses of the parameter charset changed to encoding:

Since PostgreSQL uses the terminology encoding not charset the parameter has been made consisent across all classes and resources.

  • The postgresql base class is no longer how you set globals:

The old global override pattern was less then optimal so it has been fixed, however we decided to demark this properly by specifying these overrides in the class postgresql::global. Consult the documentation for this class now to see what options are available.

Also, some parameter elements have been moved between this and the postgresql::server class where it made sense.

  • config_hash parameter collapsed for the postgresql::server class:

Because the config_hash was really passing data through to what was in effect an internal class (postgresql::config). And since we don't want this kind of internal exposure the parameters were collapsed up into the postgresql::server class directly.

  • Lots of changes to 'private' or 'undocumented' classes:

If you were using these before, these have changed names. You should only use what is documented in this README.md, and if you don't have what you need you should raise a patch to add that feature to a public API. All internal classes now have a comment at the top indicating them as private to make sure the message is clear that they are not supported as Public API.

  • pg_hba_conf_defaults parameter included to turn off default pg_hba rules:

The defaults should be good enough for most cases (if not raise a bug) but if you simply need an escape hatch, this setting will turn off the defaults. If you want to do this, it may affect the rest of the module so make sure you replace the rules with something that continues operation.

  • postgresql::database_user has now been removed:

Use postgresql::server::role instead.

  • postgresql::psql resource has now been removed:

Use postgresql_psql instead. In the future we may recreate this as a wrapper to add extra capability, but it will not match the old behaviour.

  • postgresql_default_version fact has now been removed:

It didn't make sense to have this logic in a fact any more, the logic has been moved into postgresql::params.

  • ripienaar/concat is no longer used, instead we use puppetlabs/concat:

The older concat module is now deprecated and moved into the puppetlabs/concat namespace. Functionality is more or less identical, but you may need to intervene during the installing of this package - as both use the same concat namespace.

##2013-09-09 Release 2.5.0

###Summary

The focus of this release is primarily to capture the fixes done to the types and providers to make sure refreshonly works properly and to set the stage for the large scale refactoring work of 3.0.0.

####Features

####Bugfixes

  • Use boolean for refreshonly.
  • Fix postgresql::plperl documentation.
  • Add two missing parameters to config::beforeservice
  • Style fixes

##2013-08-01 Release 2.4.1

###Summary

This minor bugfix release solves an idempotency issue when using plain text passwords for the password_hash parameter for the postgresql::role defined type. Without this, users would continually see resource changes everytime your run Puppet.

####Bugfixes

  • Alter role call not idempotent with cleartext passwords (Ken Barber)

##2013-07-19 Release 2.4.0

###Summary

This updates adds the ability to change permissions on tables, create template databases from normal databases, manage PL-Perl's postgres package, and disable the management of pg_hba.conf.

####Features

  • Add postgresql::table_grant defined resource
  • Add postgresql::plperl class
  • Add manage_pg_hba_conf parameter to the postgresql::config class
  • Add istemplate parameter to the postgresql::database define

####Bugfixes

  • Update postgresql::role class to be able to update roles when modified instead of only on creation.
  • Update tests
  • Fix documentation of postgresql::database_grant

##2.3.0

This feature release includes the following changes:

  • Add a new parameter owner to the database type. This can be used to grant ownership of a new database to a specific user. (Bruno Harbulot)
  • Add support for operating systems other than Debian/RedHat, as long as the user supplies custom values for all of the required paths, package names, etc. (Chris Price)
  • Improved integration testing (Ken Barber)

##2.2.1

This release fixes a bug whereby one of our shell commands (psql) were not ran from a globally accessible directory. This was causing permission denied errors when the command attempted to change user without changing directory.

Users of previous versions might have seen this error:

Error: Error executing SQL; psql returned 256: 'could not change directory to "/root"

This patch should correct that.

Detail Changes

  • Set /tmp as default CWD for postgresql_psql

##2.2.0

This feature release introduces a number of new features and bug fixes.

First of all it includes a new class named postgresql::python which provides you with a convenient way of install the python Postgresql client libraries.

class { 'postgresql::python':
}

You are now able to use postgresql::database_user without having to specify a password_hash, useful for different authentication mechanisms that do not need passwords (ie. cert, local etc.).

We've also provided a lot more advanced custom parameters now for greater control of your Postgresql installation. Consult the class documentation for PuppetDB in the README.

##2.1.1

This release provides a bug fix for RHEL 5 and Centos 5 systems, or specifically systems using PostgreSQL 8.1 or older. On those systems one would have received the error:

Error: Could not start Service[postgresqld]: Execution of ‘/sbin/service postgresql start’ returned 1:

And the postgresql log entry:

FATAL: unrecognized configuration parameter "include"

This bug is due to a new feature we had added in 2.1.0, whereby the include directive in postgresql.conf was not compatible. As a work-around we have added checks in our code to make sure systems running PostgreSQL 8.1 or older do not have this directive added.

Detailed Changes

  • Only install include directive and included file on PostgreSQL >= 8.2
  • Add system tests for Centos 5

##2.1.0

This release is primarily a feature release, introducing some new helpful constructs to the module.

For starters, we've added the line include 'postgresql_conf_extras.conf' by default so extra parameters not managed by the module can be added by other tooling or by Puppet itself. This provides a useful escape-hatch for managing settings that are not currently managed by the module today.

We've added a new defined resource for managing your tablespace, so you can now create new tablespaces using the syntax:

postgresql::tablespace { 'dbspace':
  location => '/srv/dbspace',
}

We've added a locale parameter to the postgresql class, to provide a default. Also the parameter has been added to the postgresql::database and postgresql::db defined resources for changing the locale per database:

postgresql::db { 'mydatabase':
  user     => 'myuser',
  password => 'mypassword',
  encoding => 'UTF8',
  locale   => 'en_NG',
}

There is a new class for installing the necessary packages to provide the PostgreSQL JDBC client jars:

class { 'postgresql::java': }

And we have a brand new defined resource for managing fine-grained rule sets within your pg_hba.conf access lists:

postgresql::pg_hba { 'Open up postgresql for access from 200.1.2.0/24':
  type => 'host',
  database => 'app',
  user => 'app',
  address => '200.1.2.0/24',
  auth_method => 'md5',
}

Finally, we've also added Travis-CI support and unit tests to help us iterate faster with tests to reduce regression. The current URL for these tests is here: https://travis-ci.org/puppetlabs/puppet-postgresql. Instructions on how to run the unit tests available are provided in the README for the module.

A big thanks to all those listed below who made this feature release possible :-).

Notable features:

  • Add support for versions of postgres other than the system default version (which varies depending on OS distro). This includes optional support for automatically managing the package repo for the "official" postgres yum/apt repos. (Major thanks to Etienne Pelletier [email protected] and Ken Barber [email protected] for their tireless efforts and patience on this feature set!) For example usage see tests/official-postgresql-repos.pp.

  • Add some support for Debian Wheezy and Ubuntu Quantal

  • Add new postgres_psql type with a Ruby provider, to replace the old exec-based psql type. This gives us much more flexibility around executing SQL statements and controlling their logging / reports output.

  • Major refactor of the "spec" tests--which are actually more like acceptance tests. We now support testing against multiple OS distros via vagrant, and the framework is in place to allow us to very easily add more distros. Currently testing against Cent6 and Ubuntu 10.04.

  • Fixed a bug that was preventing multiple databases from being owned by the same user (9adcd182f820101f5e4891b9f2ff6278dfad495c - Etienne Pelletier [email protected])

  • Add support for ACLs for finer-grained control of user/interface access (b8389d19ad78b4fb66024897097b4ed7db241930 - dharwood [email protected])
