[campsite-support] postgresql
  • Thanks for the replies on the previous question, I'm trying it out atm.

    However, our current hosting company only has a postgresql database
    server available. I'm wondering how difficult it would be to port
    campsite to use that instead of mysql? I haven't looked thouroughly on
    the source yet, but I've noticed it uses a database abstraction library
    which supports postgres, that should hopefully simplify things.

    If it's impossible/very difficult we'll just have to switch hosting
    company, but hopefully we won't need to do that.

  • The admin interface does use an abstraction library, but unfortunately
    the frontend template parser does not. We are replacing the template
    parser in campsite version 3.0, which should come out sometime this
    summer. In theory, it should be easier to use other databases in this
    new version. Until then, its MySQL only.
