Adding new syntax in postgre sql
I am new to postgre sql .And i want to add some new feature to postgresql
As a startup i have taken the project to add syntax for table partitioning
CREATE TABLE is modified to accept a PARTITION BY clause. This clause
contains one or more partition declarations. The syntax is as follows:
PARTITION BY {partition_type} (column_name[, column_name...])
[PARTITIONS number]
(
partition_declaration[, partition_declaration...]
)
The partition type can be one of HASH, RANGE or LIST.
so can anyone tell me from where to start .
I have read all the basics
but i dont know the control flow for adding new syntax.
so please tell me how to add new syntax
from parser to executor..

Welcome to the list!
There has been some previous work done on adding this syntax, but I have
not followed it so I do not know the details or if anyone is currently
working on it (have not seen any activity about it recently on the list
though).
There is a patch linked from the wiki page about adding a partitioning
syntax which is probably worth looking at.
