Well your patch definitely fixes my original bug, and AFAICT always
produces valid YAML output now. I've only found one case where a
particular parser has difficulty parsing the output, and you'd have to
write a pretty perverse query to hit that case.
So that just leaves this sort of thing:
explain (format yaml) select * from foo as "123";
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------
- Plan: +
Node Type: Seq Scan+
Relation Name: foo +
Alias: 123 +
Startup Cost: 0.00 +
Total Cost: 23.10 +
Plan Rows: 1310 +
Plan Width: 32
(1 row)
Does anyone care that Alias will sometimes be a string, and sometimes a number?
ITSM that, since postgresql knows that it's a string, it ought to
output something that parsers can unambiguously treat as a string too.
But this is also a pretty obscure case that probably only someone
deliberately trying to be awkward would do (which is me, with my
tester hat on :-)).
