PG15 removes the input and output directory from the pg regression test files and moves those files into sql and output directories. Currently cmake errors when those directories are not present in PG_SOURCE_DIR. This patch makes those directories optional so cmake does not fail when PG_SOURCE_DIR contains the checkout of a version without these directories. https://github.com/postgres/postgres/commit/d1029bb5 https://github.com/postgres/postgres/commit/dc9c3b0f
PostgreSQL tests for TimescaleDB
The CMake configuration within this directory makes it possible to run the standard PostgreSQL test suite with the TimescaleDB extension loaded. This is useful to ensure that TimescaleDBs modifications planner and DDL hooks are compatible with standard PostgreSQL.
Running
The configuration within adds a new CMake target, pginstallcheck,
that allows running the PostgreSQL test suite using a modified test
schedule. The target requires access to the PostgreSQL source code,
which can be configured via the PG_SOURCE_DIR CMake variable. The
source tree needs to be compiled, at least the src/test/regress
directory. If the path to a PostgreSQL source tree is not
auto-detected, this variable can be set manually to point to the right
location.
# In top-level directory of a TimescaleDB source tree
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DPG_SOURCE_DIR=<path/to/pg/source> ..
Once CMake is correctly configured, run:
$ make pginstallcheck
