NOW we're really getting to the part where this module is more awesome
than DBD::Pg.
(When I started working on this module I was expecting that the Postgres
binary protocol would send jsonb in a binary format as well and that I'd
be duplicating parts of the JSON parser/formatter to make that work, but
it turns out that Postgres just uses plain json for exchange. Saves me
some trouble, I guess)
I liked the Perl implementation of transactions, but managing state
between Perl and C is a bit cumbersome, so I've moved the whole thing
into C.
Also added a few statement configuration methods that currently don't do
anything yet.
Partly because some errors currently appeared to come from within FU::PG
itself, which is useless, and partly because it's common to wrap
database access methods, while that's exactly the kind of operation
where you *really* want to know where the error originated from.
(Source: too much time wasted debugging VNDB errors)
Was expecting the implementation of this to get overly complicated and
brittle, but using a counter-based cookie and doing parts of it in Perl
made it pretty easy actually. Pretty happy with how this turned out so
far.
TODO: documentation -.-
