I'm trying to use timestamp ranges to keep track of the values particular items had over time, but I'm unable to create a table as follows:
test=# create extension btree_gist; CREATE EXTENSION test=# create table v(item uuid, lifetime tstzrange, value text, test(# exclude using gist (item with =, lifetime with &&)); ERROR: data type uuid has no default operator class for access method "gist" HINT: You must specify an operator class for the index or define a default operator class for the data type. test=#
It works fine if I make item a text field.
test=# create table v(item text, lifetime tstzrange, value text, test(# exclude using gist (item with =, lifetime with &&)); CREATE TABLE test=#
Is there any reason that the required uuid access method isn't implemented? How hard is it to implement this?
I would also like to see btree_gist support uuid's.
