Required postgres version for running Oban about oban HOT 7 CLOSED

@axelson Technically PostgreSQL 9.5+ includes FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED, which is the newest feature I know of. I had initially planned on using native partitioning for pruning but backed off on that.

So, if you're running 9.5+ it should work for you. Please let me know if that isn't the case!

I'll make this clear in the docs.

We're on 9.6 so that'll work for us! Thanks!

I've documented the minimum PG, Elixir and Erlang versions. Thanks @axelson 👍

Great, thanks!

Hey there. I noticed that the referenced commit mentions 9.6 as the minimum required PG version, while above you're talking about 9.5.

We're still stuck with 9.5 and were planning to switch to Oban. Do we need to wait until we can upgrade our Postgres servers?

@manukall There are a few changes since this issue that made 9.6 the minimum version. So sadly yes, you need to wait until you can upgrade PG.

@sorentwo Alright, thanks.
