natural_sort
============

To build it:

Install [rustup](https://www.rustup.rs/). Install nightly build

rustup install nightly
rustup override set nightly

Build with cargo, test and install

cargo build
make installcheck
make install

If you encounter an error such as:

"Makefile", line 8: Need an operator

You need to use GNU make, which may well be installed on your system as
`gmake`:

gmake
gmake install
gmake installcheck

If you encounter an error such as:

make: pg_config: Command not found

Be sure that you have `pg_config` installed and in your path. If you used a
package management system such as RPM to install PostgreSQL, be sure that the
`-devel` package is also installed. If necessary tell the build process where
to find it:

env PG_CONFIG=/path/to/pg_config make && make installcheck && make install

And finally, if all that fails (and if you're on PostgreSQL 8.1 or lower, it
likely will), copy the entire distribution directory to the `contrib/`
subdirectory of the PostgreSQL source tree and try it there without
`pg_config`:

env NO_PGXS=1 make && make installcheck && make install

If you encounter an error such as:

ERROR: must be owner of database regression

You need to run the test suite using a super user, such as the default
"postgres" super user:

make installcheck PGUSER=postgres

Once natural_sort is installed, you can add it to a database. If you're running
PostgreSQL 9.1.0 or greater, it's a simple as connecting to a database as a
super user and running:

CREATE EXTENSION natural_sort;

If you've upgraded your cluster to PostgreSQL 9.1 and already had natural_sort
installed, you can upgrade it to a properly packaged extension with:

CREATE EXTENSION natural_sort FROM unpackaged;

For versions of PostgreSQL less than 9.1.0, you'll need to run the
installation script:

psql -d mydb -f /path/to/pgsql/share/contrib/natural_sort.sql

If you want to install natural_sort and all of its supporting objects into a specific
schema, use the `PGOPTIONS` environment variable to specify the schema, like
so:

PGOPTIONS=--search_path=extensions psql -d mydb -f natural_sort.sql

Dependencies
------------
The `natural_sort` data type has no dependencies other than PostgreSQL.
