Closes #69, closes #70.

format_plpgsql() had the silent-drop defect #58 fixed for SQL, and the corpus guard never reached it: format() only re-lays out a function body. Over the 41 PL/pgSQL bodies in the PostgreSQL 19 documentation, 6 lost content in every style. All are fixed:

Dropped Now
<<outerblock>> and END outerblock kept. EXIT outerblock and outerblock.quantity name a block that exists
#variable_conflict use_variable, #print_strict_params on kept, before the block
c CURSOR IS SELECT * FROM t ORDER BY a; → c; kept as written
comments put back, as for SQL statements (restore_comments, restore_literals now run on PL/pgSQL output)

Nested blocks (#70)

With those fixed, the guard found that a nested BEGIN ... END was written without its ;. That is invalid PL/pgSQL, and the next pass read the following statement as the block's end label (END COMMIT). Any body that catches an exception in an inner block hit this. Present on main.

Guard

tests/token_loss_test.rs now runs format_plpgsql() over every PL/pgSQL body in the corpus, in every style, with the three checks the SQL corpus gets: no token loss, output re-parses, and formatting is a fixed point. known_token_loss.txt stays empty.

The one corpus body that fails to parse, OPEN $1 FOR SELECT ..., is valid PL/pgSQL the tree-sitter-postgres grammar rejects; that is an upstream grammar gap, not addressed here.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • PL/pgSQL formatting now preserves compiler directives, block labels, cursor declarations and queries, comments, and nested block terminators.
    • Compiler directives are retained before the formatted block, and cursor terminators are placed on a separate line when a declaration ends with a line comment.
    • Formatting preserves PL/pgSQL content across supported styles, and formatting the result again produces consistent output.

format_plpgsql() had the silent-drop defect #58 fixed for SQL, and the
guard never reached it: `format` only re-lays out a function body. Run
over the 41 PL/pgSQL bodies in the documentation corpus, 6 lost content
in every style:

- `<<label>>` before a block, and `END label`, which EXIT, CONTINUE and
  qualified references name.
- Compiler directives before the block (`#variable_conflict
  use_variable`, `#print_strict_params on`), which sit at the root.
- A bound cursor's declaration after its name: `c CURSOR IS SELECT ...`
  came out as `c;`.
- Comments, since the SQL passes that put them and literals back did not
  run on PL/pgSQL output. They now do.

With those fixed, the guard found a nested block written without its
terminating `;` (#70). That is invalid PL/pgSQL, and the next pass read
the following statement as the block's end label (`END COMMIT`).

tests/token_loss_test.rs now runs format_plpgsql over every corpus body
in every style with the three checks the SQL corpus gets: no token loss,
output re-parses, and formatting is a fixed point.

Closes #69, closes #70.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PL/pgSQL formatter now emits root compiler options, block labels, cursor declaration text, and nested block terminators. Tests cover these constructs across styles and check token preservation, parseability, and stable formatting for selected corpus bodies.

Changes

PL/pgSQL formatting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preserve PL/pgSQL constructs
src/formatter/mod.rs, src/formatter/plpgsql.rs
Root compiler options are emitted with the formatted block. Block labels, end labels, cursor declaration text, and semicolons after nested blocks are retained.
PL/pgSQL regression coverage
tests/plpgsql_test.rs, tests/token_loss_test.rs
Tests check construct retention and stable output across styles. Corpus tests check token preservation, parseability, and fixed-point formatting for selected bodies.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 56bd9

The formatter preserves the covered PL/pgSQL constructs, and no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

declaration with its original semicolon. Ensure the formatted declaration
remains reparsable when the cursor query ends with a line comment.

Comment thread tests/token_loss_test.rs Outdated
- A bound cursor query that ends in a `--` comment had its `;` appended
  to the same line, so the comment consumed it and the output did not
  parse. Put the `;` on the next line, as the other verbatim paths do.
- Extract single-quoted `AS '...'` PL/pgSQL bodies in the corpus test,
  so reffunc2 is formatted too. Doubled quotes are written once.

Cover standalone comments in the direct PL/pgSQL test.

corpus() removes standalone comments before plpgsql_bodies() extracts them. Retaining those lines would still not help the token check because tokens() ignores comments. Add one standalone comment to the existing direct PL/pgSQL fixture and assert that format_plpgsql preserves it.

corpus() drops every line that starts with `--` to remove its own file
markers, so the corpus guard never sees a standalone comment in a
PL/pgSQL body. Add one to the direct test and check that every style
keeps it, the output parses, and a second pass changes nothing.

Outside-diff finding (tests/token_loss_test.rs:42-50, standalone comments): fixed in 56bd96d. plpgsql_keeps_labels_directives_cursors_comments_and_nested_terminators now has a -- standalone line inside the inner block and asserts every style keeps it; the reparse and fixed-point checks still pass. corpus() is unchanged. One correction to the rationale: tokens() does keep comments; the gap is that corpus() drops every line that starts with --, so standalone comments never reach the guard.
