Expand description

Determines the OID of types at runtime

Custom implementations of Connection<Backend = Pg> should not implement this trait directly. Instead GetPgMetadataCache should be implemented, afterwards the generic implementation will provide the necessary functions to perform the type lookup.

Required Methods§

source

fn lookup_type( &mut self, type_name: &str, schema: Option<&str> ) -> PgTypeMetadata

Determine the type metadata for the given type_name

This function should only be used for user defined types, or types which come from an extension. This function may perform a SQL query to look up the type. For built-in types, a static OID should be preferred.
