# PostgreSQL Module Module ## Maintainer Contact * Sam Minnee (Nickname: sminnee) ## Requirements * SilverStripe 2.4 * PostgreSQL 8.3.x or greater must be installed * PostgreSQL <8.3.0 may work if T-Search is manually installed * Known to work on OS X Leopard, Windows Server 2008 R2 and Linux ## Documentation Move the 'postgresql' folder to the root level of the project. You'll need to create a database with the desired name manually. Run dev/build and you should be set. ## Usage Overview See docs/en for more information about configuring the module. ## Known issues All column and table names must be double-quoted. PostgreSQL automatically lower-cases columns, and your queries will fail if you don't. Ts_vector columns are not automatically detected by the built-in search filters. That means if you're doing a search through the CMS on a ModelAdmin object, it will use LIKE queries which are very slow. If you're writing your own front-end search system, you can specify the columns to use for search purposes, and you get the full benefits of T-Search. If you are using unsupported modules, there may be instances of MySQL-specific SQL queries which will need to be made database-agnostic where possible.
