NAME

       SQL::Translator::Parser::PostgreSQL - parser for PostgreSQL

SYNOPSIS

	 use SQL::Translator;
	 use SQL::Translator::Parser::PostgreSQL;

	 my $translator = SQL::Translator->new;
	 $translator->parser("SQL::Translator::Parser::PostgreSQL");

DESCRIPTION

       The grammar was started from the MySQL parsers.	Here is the description from PostgreSQL:

       Table: (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/view.php?version=7.3&idoc=1&file=sql-createtable.html)

	 CREATE [ [ LOCAL ] { TEMPORARY | TEMP } ] TABLE table_name (
	     { column_name data_type [ DEFAULT default_expr ]
		[ column_constraint [, ... ] ]
	     | table_constraint }  [, ... ]
	 )
	 [ INHERITS ( parent_table [, ... ] ) ]
	 [ WITH OIDS | WITHOUT OIDS ]

	 where column_constraint is:

	 [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ]
	 { NOT NULL | NULL | UNIQUE | PRIMARY KEY |
	   CHECK (expression) |
	   REFERENCES reftable [ ( refcolumn ) ] [ MATCH FULL | MATCH PARTIAL ]
	     [ ON DELETE action ] [ ON UPDATE action ] }
	 [ DEFERRABLE | NOT DEFERRABLE ]
	 [ INITIALLY DEFERRED | INITIALLY IMMEDIATE ]

	 and table_constraint is:

	 [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ]
	 { UNIQUE ( column_name [, ... ] ) |
	   PRIMARY KEY ( column_name [, ... ] ) |
	   CHECK ( expression ) |
	   FOREIGN KEY ( column_name [, ... ] )
	    REFERENCES reftable [ ( refcolumn [, ... ] ) ]
	     [ MATCH FULL | MATCH PARTIAL ]
	     [ ON DELETE action ] [ ON UPDATE action ] }
	 [ DEFERRABLE | NOT DEFERRABLE ]
	 [ INITIALLY DEFERRED | INITIALLY IMMEDIATE ]

       Index: (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/view.php?version=7.3&idoc=1&file=sql-createindex.html)

	 CREATE [ UNIQUE ] INDEX index_name ON table
	     [ USING acc_method ] ( column [ ops_name ] [, ...] )
	     [ WHERE predicate ]
	 CREATE [ UNIQUE ] INDEX index_name ON table
	     [ USING acc_method ] ( func_name( column [, ... ]) [ ops_name ] )
	     [ WHERE predicate ]

       Alter table:

	 ALTER TABLE [ ONLY ] table [ * ]
	     ADD [ COLUMN ] column type [ column_constraint [ ... ] ]
	 ALTER TABLE [ ONLY ] table [ * ]
	     ALTER [ COLUMN ] column { SET DEFAULT value | DROP DEFAULT }
	 ALTER TABLE [ ONLY ] table [ * ]
	     ALTER [ COLUMN ] column SET STATISTICS integer
	 ALTER TABLE [ ONLY ] table [ * ]
	     RENAME [ COLUMN ] column TO newcolumn
	 ALTER TABLE table
	     RENAME TO new_table
	 ALTER TABLE table
	     ADD table_constraint_definition
	 ALTER TABLE [ ONLY ] table
		 DROP CONSTRAINT constraint { RESTRICT | CASCADE }
	 ALTER TABLE table
		 OWNER TO new_owner

       View table:

	   CREATE [ OR REPLACE ] VIEW view [ ( column name list ) ] AS SELECT query
