Provides a field to store bytes as PostgreSQL large objects.
- PostgreSQL offers support for large objects, which provide
- stream-style access to user data that is stored in a special
- large-object structure. They are useful with data values too large
- to be manipulated conveniently as a whole.
-
Psycopg2 for Python
-
- Psycopg allows access to the large object using the
- lobject
- class. Objects are generated using the
- connection.lobject()
- factory method. Data can be retrieved either as bytes or as Unicode
- strings.
-
-
- Psycopg large object support efficient import/export with file
- system files using the
- lo_import()
- and
- lo_export()
- libpq functions.
-
-
Changed in version 2.6: added support for large objects
- greated than 2GB. Note that the support is enabled only if all the
- following conditions are verified:
-
- - the Python build is 64 bits;
- - the extension was built against at least libpq 9.3;
- - the server version is at least PostgreSQL 9.3
- (server_version must be >= 90300).
-
-
- If Psycopg was built with 64 bits large objects support (i.e. the
- first two contidions above are verified), the
- psycopg2.__version__
- constant will contain the lo64 flag. If any of the contition is not
- met several lobject methods will fail if the arguments exceed 2GB.

This module allows the LargeObject Field to be previewed by
+ the Preview Dialog. It is installed automatically with the MuK
+ Preview Dialog module. It has no direct visible effect on the
+ system. It allows LargeObejct fields to be previewed by the Preview
+ Dialog.
