Welcome to the PL/php Trac site. This site is designed to help us foster a community around PL/php. Recently, PL/php has started seeing more development, and we have recently started releasing new versions.  Please see the [wiki:Downloads] page.

PL/php 1.3.3 addresses the previous phpinfo() issue as well as a bunch of others, particulary improper handling of columns with numeric names, random backend crashes etc. This is the first PL/php version with PostgreSQL 8.2 support, and autoconf/configure scripts replacing the need to edit the project's Makefile directly. It still has issues with threaded PHP build, so I recommend not using --enable-maintainer-zts when configuring your PHP library. Except for this it successfully passed all regression tests with PostgreSQL 8.2 and PHP 5.

PL/php 1.3 was released on 2006-07-14. It has been sitting here for a while and works pretty well. The following we know does not work:
21
22
{{{
23
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test_func() RETURNS text $$
24
25
RETURN phpinfo();
26
27
$$ LANGUAGE 'plphp';
28
}}}
29

It will result in an execution timeout.

32
We also do not currently support in/out parameters but it is on the list.

PL/php 1.2 was released on 2005-12-13.  This version adds SRF (Set-Returning Function) support.  It is also an attempt to make the build system a bit more independent of your actual setup.  In order to build it, you need to have the apxs program somewhere in your path.  Please report any incompatibility.

PL/php 1.1 was released on 2005-12-05.  This version is much cooler than the previous one because you don't have to patch PostgreSQL nor PHP sources -- actually, you don't even need those sources, so it's much easier to install than the previous 1.0 version.  This is the first release since I (Álvaro Herrera) took maintainership of PL/php.

Before you can use PL/php, you need to [wiki:CreateLang create the language] in the database.  (In PostgreSQL 8.0 you need [wiki:CreateLang80 these instructions instead]).
