Documentation: conninfo structure?

[d9k]

luapgsql.adoc:

connectdb(conninfo) -- ... This function opens a new database connection using the parameters taken from the string conninfo.

It's unclear whether conninfo is structure or string. If it only may be the string please rename it to connectionString. And provide some usage examples please.

The Documentation says it's a string. The wording is taken from the libpq documentation.

As for examples, take a look at the various .lua files.

@mbalmer, ok, it's a URI string

Example: 'postgresql://test:123@127.0.0.1:5432/testdb'

It can be.

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNSTRING It could also be a string containing whitespace separated key=value pairs like host=localhost port=5432 dbname=mydb connect_timeout=10

@mbalmer, thanks! It would be great for novice users to know about connection string types from luapgsql documentation
