Wow, that is bad, and you are right. The PL/PgSQL cookbook URL doesn't work and I don't see it mentioned on techdocs anymore.

I don't know what specifically happened, but I recall Robert having some hosting issues and his site going down. I contacted him about moving the site to techdocs or www but he said he was planning on doing a relaunch of the site with some new features though he had some other projects he had to finish up on. This was probably a year or more ago. I followed up with him a couple of times and eventually either got no response or bounced emails, so I removed the links from techdocs since they were broken for so long. If anyone could deliver his code to me I would be very happy to put it up somewhere in the postgresql web hierarchy, but I don't know how to get a hold of him/it. I've seen a couple rumblings from different people about creating a new cookbook, I think the last time by Josh Berkus through the pgfoundry system, but I don't think anything has ever materialized. Perhaps that's something someone looking for a community project could do to help out? Robert Treat On Wed, 2004-10-13 at 05:36, Bruce Momjian wrote: > > Wow, that is bad, and you are right.

OK, that helps. I have a copy of the cookbook from perhaps 6 months ago if someone wants it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Treat wrote: > I don't know what specifically happened, but I recall Robert having some > hosting issues and his site going down.

Please send me a copy and I'll see what we need to do to put up live. Robert Treat On Wednesday 13 October 2004 10:11, Bruce Momjian wrote: > OK, that helps.

Perhaps that's > something someone looking for a community project could do to help out? This is in process. It's called "Code Snippets" and it's a feature of GForge. Unfortunately, as-is the Gforge feature is broken, so it's curently waiting on me and David Fetter to write a patch. Regrettably, we've both been a bit backlogged, so if there *is* a PHP coder who is willing to work on it and has enough free bandwitdh to learn Gforge, private e-mail me, thanks! -- --Josh Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

Bruce believes he has the old cookbook code and we've had someone ask about yet another alternative, so I think it looks like we have alternative solutions available. I've no problem sticking with your road map if you feel that's where we need to go, but I've also no problem letting different people work independently and going with whatever solution comes out first (sort of ansari xprize style) Robert Treat -- Build A Brighter Lamp :: Linux Apache {middleware} PostgreSQL
Robert, > Is "code snippits" the one true plan? No, it's just the closest one to being implemented, and integrates tightly with a PostgreSQL site already up. Why spend 100 hours coding something from scratch when 4-5 hours of work on an existing app would make it happen? > Bruce believes he has the old > cookbook code Which is not really useable.

Unfortunately, with each separate developer working on each separate solution, often nothing gets finished. I personally don't see any value in fragmented efforts just so that people don't have to work with anyone else's code. We're an OSS project, we're supposed to be about *pooling* talent/code. If somebody presents something completed, then great! I'd be thrilled. Anything I don't have to do is a good thing. But if somebody asks me "How can we do this thing?" I'm going to tell them "help fix Code Snippets". Now, if someone has an objection to Code Snippets as a tool and knows of something else we can get done faster/better, then please, let's hear it! I'm not attached to it, I just see it as the easiest path. -- --Josh Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

Fair enough. But I can bring up several cases where waiting to implement a preferred solution meant nothing getting done at all. Bruce has sent me the cookbook code, I plan to look at it and see how feasible it is to get it up and running. Also, I looked in the bug list for the pgfoundry project and didn't see anything about the broken code snippits problem, perhaps you can post a bug in there and shoot me a link? -- Robert Treat Build A Brighter Lamp :: Linux Apache {middleware} PostgreSQL

Hi folks - I went ahead and added an RFE for the code snippets rewrite here: http://pgfoundry.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1000124&group_id=1000013&atid=149 with an explanation of what I see are the tricky bits.
