Multicorn2

Multicorn Python3 Wrapper for Postgresql Foreign Data Wrapper. Tested on Linux w/ Python 3.6+ & Postgres 10 thru 14. Support for Postgres 14 is known to have some issues with predicate pushdown and updating. We are starting to try and build w/ PG15 and look at what needs improving from PG14.

The Multicorn Foreign Data Wrapper allows you to fetch foreign data in Python in your PostgreSQL server.

Multicorn2 is distributed under the PostgreSQL license. See the LICENSE file for details.

Using in OSCG.IO

1.) Install OSCG.IO from the command line, in your home directory, with the curl command at the top of https://oscg.io/usage.html

2.) Change into the oscg directory and install pgXX

cd oscg
./io install pg13 --start
./io install multicorn2

3.) Use multicorn as you normally would AND you can install popular FDW's that use multicorn such as ElasticSerachFDW & BigQueryFDW

      ./io install esfdw
      ./io install bqfdw

Building Multicorn2 against Postgres from Source

It is built the same way all standard postgres extensions are built with following dependcies needing to be installed:

Install Dependencies for Building Postgres & the Multicorn2 extension

On Debian/Ubuntu systems:

sudo apt install -y build-essential libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev flex bison libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libssl-dev libxml2-utils xsltproc
sudo apt install -y python3 python3-dev python3-setuptools python3-pip

On CentOS/Rocky/Redhat systems:

sudo yum install -y bison-devel readline-devel libedit-devel zlib-devel openssl-devel bzip2-devel libmxl2 libxslt-devel wget
sudo yum groupinstall -y 'Development Tools'

sudo yum -y install git python3 python3-devel python3-pip

Upgrade to latest PIP (recommended)

cd ~
wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
sudo python3 get-pip.py
rm get-pip.py

Download & Compile Postgres 10+ source code

cd ~
wget https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v14.3/postgresql-14.3.tar.gz
tar -xvf postgresql-14.3.tar.gz
cd postgresql-14.3
./configure
make
sudo make install

Download & Compile Multicorn2

set PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/bin:$PATH
cd ~/postgresql-14.3/contrib
wget https://github.com/pgsql-io/multicorn2/archive/refs/tags/v2.3.tar.gz
tar -xvf v2.3.tar.gz
cd multicorn2-2.3
make
sudo make install

Create Multicorn2 Extension

In your running instance of Postgres from the PSQL command line

CREATE EXTENSION multicorn;

Building Multicorn2 against pre-built Postgres

When using a pre-built Postgres installed using your OS package manager, you will need the additional package that enables Postgres extensions to be built:

Install Dependencies for Building the Multicorn2 extension

On Debian/Ubuntu systems:

sudo apt install -y build-essential ... postgresql-server-dev-13
sudo apt install -y python3 python3-dev python3-setuptools python3-pip

On CentOS/Rocky/Redhat systems:

sudo yum install -y ... <postgres server dev package>
sudo yum groupinstall -y 'Development Tools'
sudo yum -y install git python3 python3-devel python3-pip

Download & Compile Multicorn2

wget https://github.com/pgsql-io/multicorn2/archive/refs/tags/v2.3.tar.gz
tar -xvf v2.3.tar.gz
cd multicorn2-2.3
make
sudo make install

Note that the last step installs both the extension into Postgres and also the Python part. The latter is done using "pip install", and so can be undone using "pip uninstall".

Create Multicorn2 Extension

In your running instance of Postgres from the PSQL command line

CREATE EXTENSION multicorn;
