September 20 2019 - v4.1

This is a maintenance release to fix issues reported by users since
the last three month. As usual there is also some improvements and
new features.

  • Add -T, --tabs option to make pg_format use tabs instead of space characters. When this option is used spaces number is set to 1 whatever is the value set to -s, --spaces.
  • Allow output to override source file.
  • Add option -g, --no-grouping and CGI corresponding checkbox. By default pgFormatter groups all statements when they are in a transaction:
        BEGIN;
        INSERT INTO foo VALUES (1, 'text 1');
        INSERT INTO foo VALUES (2, 'text 2');
        ...
        COMMIT;

By disabling grouping of statement pgFormatter will always add an extra newline characters between statements just like outside a transaction:

        BEGIN;

        INSERT INTO foo VALUES (1, 'text 1');

        INSERT INTO foo VALUES (2, 'text 2');
        ...

        COMMIT;

This might add readability to not DML transactions.

  • Add more SQL keyword: REFRESH, MATERIALIZED, EVENT and function xmltable
  • Prevent uppercase of keywords when they are used as column names in a CREATE TABLE statement.
