postgresql-unit 3 released -------------------------- The PostgreSQL "unit" extension provides a datatype for values using the SI base types, and Bytes.
Highlight in version 3 of the extension is the ability to define new prefixes and units at run-time using database tables, and the vast number of predefined prefixes and units imported from the GNU "unit" tool. Over 2400 units are available now. Example for a user-defined unit: # INSERT INTO unit_units VALUES ('legobrick', '9.6 mm'); # SELECT '1 m'::unit @ 'legobricks' AS one_meter; one_meter ----------------------------- 104.166666666667 legobricks Changelog: * Support defining new units at runtime. * Import unit definitions from GNU units. * Add sqrt() and cbrt() functions. * Extension is not relocatable after installation anymore. * Bump extension version to 3. * Bump minimum supported PostgreSQL version to 9.5 so we can use hash_create(HASH_BLOBS). * Bump license to GPL-3+ to match GNU units' license.
