PostgreSQL driver for Caqti (bindings).

This driver is implemented in terms of the postgresql OPAM package which provides bindings for the PostgreSQL C client library.

It handles URIs of the form

postgresql://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<rest>

which are passed verbatim to Postgresql.connection, except as noted below, and URIs of the form postgresql://<query> which are first split into <key> = '<value>' form.

In addition to libpq parameters, the following will be interpreted by Caqti and stripped of before passing the URI to libpq:

notice_processing can be set to quite (the default) to suppress notices or to stderr to let libpq emit notices to standard error.

use_single_row_mode can be set to true to enable single row mode for queries which may return more than one row. The default is false because it is significantly faster. Single row mode is needed if query results may exceed whan can be stored in memory, but consider batching the results with LIMIT and OFFSET instead for better perfomance.

The interface provided by this module should normally not be used by applications, but provides access to some PostgreSQL specifics in case they are needed.
