Please help us test Pyrseas 0.6.0beta, a beta release of Pyrseas, a
framework for upgrading/migrating PostgreSQL databases, which is
available from:
GitHub: https://github.com/jmafc/Pyrseas
Updated documentation is viewable at:
Read the Docs: http://pyrseas.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
Pyrseas now supports the following additional PostgreSQL features:
- EXTENSIONs
- COLLATIONs
- OWNER information
- Access privileges (GRANT and REVOKE)
- TABLESPACEs for tables, primary keys and indexes
Other changes and enhancements are detailed in the NEWS file of the
release. Pyrseas supports PostgreSQL 8.4, 9.0 and 9.1. The utilities
can be run under Python 2.6, 2.7 or 3.2.
This release covers essentially all the objects possibly present in a
PostgreSQL 9.1 database (see Feature Matrix at
http://pyrseas.wordpress.com/feature-matrix/ ). We believe the
utilities may be useful beyond the migration use case. For example, it
could now be used to compare access privileges between test and
production databases. The YAML (JSON compatible) output could also be
used as input to other tools.
Therefore, we would like to encourage PostgreSQL users to take a look at
this beta release and to help us test it. Please follow the development
installation instructions:

Please report any issues at https://github.com/jmafc/Pyrseas/issues
Best regards,
