NAME¶
cdist-type__postgres_extension - Manage PostgreSQL extensions
DESCRIPTION¶
This cdist type allows you to manage PostgreSQL extensions.
The __object_id to pass to __postgres_extension is of the form dbname:extension, e.g.:
rails_test:unaccent
CAUTION! Be careful when installing extensions from (untrusted) third-party sources:
Installing an extension as superuser requires trusting that the extension's author wrote the extension installation script in a secure fashion. It is not terribly difficult for a malicious user to create trojan-horse objects that will compromise later execution of a carelessly-written extension script, allowing that user to acquire superuser privileges. – https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/sql-createextension.html#id-1.9.3.64.7
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS¶
- state
- either present or absent, defaults to present.
EXAMPLES¶
# Install extension unaccent into database rails_test __postgres_extension rails_test:unaccent # Drop extension unaccent from database fails_test __postgres_extension rails_test:unaccent --state absent
