Or we could just leave the attribute dict as it is and use something like:
CREATE SERVER dbdtest FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER dbi
OPTIONS (
datasource 'DBI:Excel:file=dbdtest.xls',
attributes '{xl_vtbl => {TESTV => { ... } }}'
);
CREATE USER MAPPING FOR bob SERVER dbdtest
OPTIONS (username NULL, password NULL);
The connection lookup for "dbtest" (user bob) would return:
key value
----------- ------------------------------------------------------------
datasource DBI:Excel:file=dbdtest.xls
attributes {xl_vtbl => {TESTV => { ... } }}
username NULL
password NULL
