Breaking Change Please see UPGRADING.md and the README.md for information how to use.

• Add custom resources for:

  • postgresql_client_install
  • postgresql_server_install
  • postgresql_repository
  • postgresql_pg_gem

• Deprecate recipes:

  • apt_pgdg_postgresql
  • config_initdb
  • config_pgtune
  • contrib
  • ruby
  • yum_pgdg_postgresql

• Remove deprecated tests

v6.1.3 (2018-04-18)

• Fix recipes referencing the old helpers

v6.1.2 (2018-04-16)

this will be the last release of the 6.0 series before all recipes are removed from the cookbook

• Deprecate all recipes

v6.1.1 (2017-03-08)

• Fix pg gem installation on non-omnibus chef runs
• Resolve resource cloning deprecation warnings in the ruby recipe
• Fix issues resolving the timezone on CentOS 7 and probably other distros
• Test with Delivery local instead of Rake

v6.1.0 (2017-02-18)

• Fix a method name conflict that caused errors if Chef Sugar was also being used on the run list

• Removed testing for RHEL 5 and Ubuntu 12.04 as they are scheduled for EoL in the near future

v6.0.1 (2017-01-04

• Fix systemd unit file template

v6.0.0 (2017-01-03)

• This cookbook now requires Chef 12.1 or later
• Removed the dependency on the apt cookbook as this functionality is built into modern chef client releases
• Added a new custom resource for installing extensions. This acts as a replacement for the contrib recipe with minimal backwards compatibility. You can now install / remove extensions into any database. This adds the compat_resource cookbook dependency so we can continue to support Chef 12.1-12.4, which lack custom resource support.
• The unused get_result_orig helper has been removed. If you utilized this you'll want to move it to your own wrapper cookbook
• Updates for compatibility with Postgresql 9.5 and 9.6
• Fixed client package installation on openSUSE Leap 42.2
• ca-certificates recipe has been deprecated. If ca-certificates package needs to be upgraded the user should do so prior to including this recipe. Package upgrades in community cookbooks are generally a bad idea as this bring in updated packages to production systems. The recipe currently warns if used and will be removed with the next major cookbook release.
• Fixed RHEL platform detection in the Ruby recipe
• systemd fixes for RHEL systems
• Fix systemd service file include when using pgdg packages
• Package installation now uses multi-package installs to speed up converge times
• Added integration testing in Travis of the client recipe using a new test cookbook. This will be expanded in the future to cover server installation as well
• Expanded the specs to test converges on multiple platforms

• Added a Code of Conduct (the Chef CoC)
• Removed duplicate platforms in the metadata
• Fix Chef runs with local mode in the server recipe
• Fix the ruby recipe to not fail when you specify enabling both the apt and yum repos for mixed distro environments
• Set the postgresql data directory to 700 permissions
• Added node['postgresql']['pg_gem']['version'] to specify the version of the pg gem to install
• Cookstyle fixes for the latest cookstyle release
• Removed test deps from the Gemfile. Rely on ChefDK for base testing deps instead

v5.1.0 (2016-11-01)
