Using uuid-cb in Managed Service for Greenplum®

The uuid-cb extension exports functions for generating and validating unique IDs in compliance with the Russian Central Bank requirements:

• uuid_cb_generate(): Generates a text value that is a unique ID in the format required by the Russian Central Bank.
• uuid_cb_valid(text): Returns a boolean value that indicates if a text argument is a unique ID in the format required by the Russian Central Bank.

Installing the uuid-cb extension in a Greenplum® clusterInstalling the uuid-cb extension in a Greenplum® cluster

1. Connect to the database as the owner or a user with the CREATE permission and run the command:

   CREATE EXTENSION "uuid-cb";
   

2. Make sure that the extension is installed:

   SELECT extname FROM pg_extension;
   

Usage exampleUsage example

1. Create a table with unique IDs and data such as:

   CREATE TABLE uid_tbl (
       uid TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT uuid_cb_generate() CHECK (uuid_cb_valid(uid) = true),
       data INTEGER NOT NULL,
       PRIMARY KEY (uid)
       )
   DISTRIBUTED BY(uid);
   

   The unique IDs in the format required by the Russian Central Bank will be generated in the uid column as default values. A check doesn't allow inserting values that are not unique IDs in the format required by the Russian Central Bank.

2. Insert the test data into the data column:

   INSERT INTO uid_tbl (data)
   SELECT d FROM generate_series(1, 10) d;
   

   For each command run, pseudorandom ID values are generated.

3. Check the generated data:

   SELECT * FROM uid_tbl;
   

   Result:

                     uid                   | data
