NAME Alien::libpq - Find or build libpq PostgreSQL client library SYNOPSIS use Alien::libpq; use ExtUtils::MakeMaker; WriteMakefile( ... CONFIGURE_REQUIRES => { 'Alien::libpq' => 0, }, CCFLAGS => Alien::libpq->cflags, LIBS => Alien::libpq->libs, ); DESCRIPTION This module provides the libpq C library (PostgreSQL client library). It will use the system library if available, or download and build from source if necessary. The source build is configured without OpenSSL, readline, zlib, and ICU for a minimal footprint. SSL/TLS connections require system-provided libpq. METHODS libs libs_static On macOS with a share install, appends "-Wl,-rpath" so the dynamic linker can find "libpq.dylib" after Alien::Build DESTDIR relocation. All other methods are inherited from Alien::Base.
