<h1>PostgreSQL/psycopg Backend</h1>
<p>This are notes about PostqreSQL backend based on the psycopg adapter for
Roundup issue tracker.</p>
<div class="section" id="prerequisites">
<h2>Prerequisites</h2>
<p>To use PostgreSQL as backend for storing roundup data, you should
additionally install:</p>
<ol class="arabic">
<li><p class="first">PostgreSQL 7.x - <a class="reference external" href="http://www.postgresql.org/">http://www.postgresql.org/</a></p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">The psycopg python interface to PostgreSQL:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><a class="reference external" href="http://initd.org/software/initd/psycopg">http://initd.org/software/initd/psycopg</a></p>
</blockquote>
<p>It is recommended that you use at least version 1.1.21</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Some advice on setting up the postgresql backend may be found at:</p>

<div class="section" id="running-the-postgresql-unit-tests">
<h2>Running the PostgreSQL unit tests</h2>
<p>The user that you’re running the tests as will need to be able to access
the postgresql database on the local machine and create and drop
databases. Edit the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">test/test_postgresql.py</span></tt> database connection info if
you wish to test against a different database.</p>
<p>The test database will be called “rounduptest”.</p>
