What is Npgsql?

Npgsql is an open-source .NET data provider for PostgreSQL. It enables applications to connect to and interact with PostgreSQL servers using the .NET ecosystem.

How does PL/.NET use Npgsql?

PL/.NET leverages Npgsql as its PostgreSQL compatibility layer, offering:

• 🔄 Seamless mapping between PostgreSQL and .NET data types
• 🧪 A shared testing foundation using Npgsql's own regression test suite
• 🛠️ Low-level modifications to support server-side execution via PostgreSQL’s SPI (Server Programming Interface)

This fork is based on Npgsql v9.0.3, with minimal changes tailored for server-side use in PL/.NET.

We are deeply grateful to the Npgsql contributors — their work forms a foundational component of PL/.NET. 🙏
