The repository is archived, and it is no longer used.
This repository includes Maven parent poms that are were by PostgreSQL JDBC driver REL9.4.1207..REL42.2.12.
As pgjdbc switched to Gradle, this repository is no longer used.
You probably do not need to clone/build this repository. In order to contribute a feature / file a bug report for JDBC driver, please use JDBC driver main repository.
In case base dependency (e.g. maven-compiler-plugin version) needs to be changed, a relevant change to the pgjdbc-parent-poms repository should
be made and this new version should be used in main pgjdbc repository.
Most people do not need to compile PgJDBC. You can download prebuilt versions of the driver from the Postgresql JDBC site or using your chosen dependency management tool (see details at JDBC driver )
In order to build the set of parent poms, you will need the following tools:
- A git client
- A recent version of Maven (3.x)
- A JDK (any should work)
The PgJDBC project uses git for version control. You can check out the current code by running:
git clone https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc-parent-poms.git
This will create a pgjdbc-parent-poms directory containing the checked-out source code.
After checking out the code you can install new poms to your local repository:
mvn install
Git repository typically contains -SNAPSHOT versions, so you can use the following command:
mvn deploy
Procedure:
To commit updates to version in pom.xml files and create a tag, issue:
mvn release:clean release:prepare
To stage the version to maven central, issue:
mvn release:perform
This will open staging repository for smoke testing access at https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/orgpostgresql-1082/
If staged artifacts look fine, release it
mvn nexus-staging:release -DstagingRepositoryId=orgpostgresql-1082
pgjdbc-parent-poms has little to no dependencies itself. It just lists defaults to be used by core pgjdbc project.
PgJDBC development is carried out on the PgJDBC mailing list and on GitHub.
For bug reports please post on pgsql-jdbc or add a GitHub issue. If you include additional unit tests demonstrating the issue, or self-contained runnable test case including SQL scripts etc that shows the problem, your report is likely to get more attention. Make sure you include appropriate details on your environment, like your JDK version, container/appserver if any, platform, PostgreSQL version, etc. Err on the site of excess detail if in doubt.
If you've developed a patch you want to propose for inclusion in PgJDBC, feel free to send a GitHub pull request or post the patch on the PgJDBC mailing list. Make sure your patch includes additional unit tests demonstrating and testing any new features. In the case of bug fixes, where possible include a new unit test that failed before the fix and passes after it.
For information on working with GitHub, see: http://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo and http://learn.github.com/p/intro.html.
Remember to test proposed PgJDBC patches when running against older PostgreSQL versions where possible, not just against the PostgreSQL you use yourself.
You also need to test your changes with older JDKs. PgJDBC must support JDK6 ("Java 1.6") and newer. Code that is specific to a particular spec version may use features from that version of the language. i.e. JDBC4.1 specific may use JDK7 features, JDBC4.2 may use JDK8 features. Common code and JDBC4 code needs to be compiled using JDK6.
If you have ideas or proposed changes, please post on the mailing list or open a detailed, specific GitHub issue.
Think about how the change would affect other users, what side effects it might have, how practical it is to implement, what implications it would have for standards compliance and security, etc. Include a detailed use-case description.
Few of the PgJDBC developers have much spare time, so it's unlikely that your idea will be picked up and implemented for you. The best way to make sure a desired feature or improvement happens is to implement it yourself. The PgJDBC sources are reasonably clear and they're pure Java, so it's sometimes easier than you might expect.
It's possible to debug and test PgJDBC with various IDEs, not just with mvn on
the command line. Projects aren't supplied, but it's easy to prepare them.
We have very precise rules over how our git commit messages can be formatted. This leads to more readable messages that are easy to follow when looking through the project history. But also, we use the git commit messages to generate the change log.
Each commit message consists of a header, a body and a footer. The header has a special format that includes a type, and a subject:
<type>: <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>
Any line of the commit message cannot be longer 100 characters! This allows the message to be easier to read on github as well as in various git tools.
Must be one of the following:
- feat: A new feature
- fix: A bug fix
- docs: Documentation only changes
- style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
- refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug or adds a feature
- perf: A code change that improves performance
- test: Adding missing tests
- chore: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation generation
The subject contains succinct description of the change:
- use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
- don't capitalize first letter
- no dot (.) at the end
###Body Just as in the subject, use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes" The body should include the motivation for the change and contrast this with previous behavior.
###Footer The footer should contain any information about Breaking Changes and is also the place to reference GitHub issues that this commit Closes.
