= sqlpostgres

sqlpostgres is a mini-language for building and execting SQL
statements against a postgresql database.

This is a very old library, pre-dating active record and lacking many
of its refinements.  New projects will probably not want to use this.

== INSTALL

    $ gem install USPS-intelligent-barcode

== EXAMPLE

    require "sqlpostgres"
    
    include SqlPostgres
    
    Connection.open do |connection|
      connection.exec("create temporary table foo (t text)")
      
      insert = Insert.new('foo', connection)
      insert.insert('t', 'Smith')
      insert.exec
      
      insert = Insert.new('foo', connection)
      insert.insert('t', 'Jones')
      insert.exec
      
      update = Update.new('foo', connection)
      update.set('t', "O'Brien")
      update.where(["t = %s", "Smith"])
      update.exec  
      
      select = Select.new(connection)
      select.select('t')
      select.from('foo')
      select.order_by('t')
      p select.exec
      # [{"t"=>"Jones"}, {"t"=>"O'Brien"}]
      
    end

== RUBY VERSIONS

Postgres 1.9.
