Has anybody started on support for Postgres?
I've checked out the layering and it seems
to be a fairly modular project. I haven't coded
in C for quite some time, but I think I can handle
it. Any hints? Should I even try?
The only thing I can see having problems with is
the build/configure system. How do I hook in a new
module? How are include directories and new libraries
added? I was pretty good with make, gmake, imake in my day
but I can't seem to find the head of the Make tree!

I'm not aware of any.

I think the DB interface should be clean
enough. So give it a try. If you
encounter any problem just ask.

Just create a new directory
in modules Directory and copy a Makefile from the
other modules (mysql for example) and change the NAME parameter within this
Makefile. Then your new module will be build automaticly on 'make all' or
'make modules'.

That would be way great.

create a directory, copy some other module's Makefile
in it and that's it. (modules/mysql/Makefile is a good
example which links to external libs) The main Makefile
will find it.

AFAIK no.

Yes please, if you have enough cycles to write postgres support,
please do it. I am the author of the database API, so don't hesitate
to ask if you need any help.
Probably the best way to start would be looking at mysql and dbtext
modules, both of them implement the API. Please use the latest CVS
snapshot for the development.
Complete documentation of the API can be found in
sip_router/db/db-api.txt or in Ser Developer's guide.

Grab a CVS snapshot, create a new directory in sip_router/modules,
for example sip_router/modules/postgres, copy Makefile from
sip_router/modules/mysql and replace mysql libraries with postgres
libraries in the Makefile.
let me know if you have any questions, postgres support would be very
useful, but currently we have no manpower for that. It would be great
if you could help.

Greg,
to help yo do the first step, I created a module skeleton for you.
Enclosed please find postgres.tar.gz, untar this file to
sip_router/modules, it will create a new directory - postgres and some
skeleton files.
Get yourself familiar with the code and look for /* WRITE ME */
comments, this is where you need write your code. You will also need to
modify Makefile and replate mysql with postgres libraries.
regards, Jan.
