TDS Foreign data wrapper

Installing on openSUSE

This document will show how to install tds_fdw on openSUSE Leap 15.1. Other openSUSE and SUSE distributions should be similar.

Install FreeTDS and build dependencies

The TDS foreign data wrapper requires a library that implements the DB-Library interface, such as FreeTDS.

sudo zypper install freetds-devel

Some other dependencies are also needed to install PostgreSQL and then compile tds_fdw:

sudo zypper install gcc make

Install PostgreSQL

If you need to install PostgreSQL, for example, 10.X:

sudo zypper install postgresql10 postgresql10-server postgresql10-devel

NOTE: If you already have PostgreSQL installed on your system be sure that the package postgresqlXX-devel is installed too (where XX stands for your PostgreSQL version).

Install tds_fdw

Build from release package

If you'd like to use one of the release packages, you can download and install them via something like the following:

export TDS_FDW_VERSION="2.0.4"
wget https://github.com/tds-fdw/tds_fdw/archive/v${TDS_FDW_VERSION}.tar.gz
tar -xvzf v${TDS_FDW_VERSION}.tar.gz
cd tds_fdw-${TDS_FDW_VERSION}/
make USE_PGXS=1
sudo make USE_PGXS=1 install

NOTE: If you have several PostgreSQL versions and you do not want to build for the default one, first locate where the binary for pg_config is, take note of the full path, and then append PG_CONFIG=<PATH> after USE_PGXS=1 at the make commands.

Build from repository

If you would rather use the current development version, you can clone and build the git repository via something like the following:

zypper in git
git clone https://github.com/tds-fdw/tds_fdw.git
cd tds_fdw
make USE_PGXS=1
sudo make USE_PGXS=1 install

NOTE: If you have several PostgreSQL versions and you do not want to build for the default one, first locate where the binary for pg_config is, take note of the full path, and then append PG_CONFIG=<PATH> after USE_PGXS=1 at the make commands.

Start server

If this is a fresh installation, then start the server:

sudo service postgresql start

Install extension

psql -U postgres
postgres=# CREATE EXTENSION tds_fdw;
