You can stage the PCRE tables from intended source tables to target
tables via "make" rules, which in addition to deploying the source
files into the right location first check that the source files
pass basic sanity checks.
The sanity checks can just run "postmap -q" with given inputs and
ensure that the pattern either does or does not match as expected
for that pattern.
Makefile:
foo.pcre: foo.pcre.in
# Make sure this fails to match
postmap -q example.com pcre:foo.pcre.in >/dev/null; exit [ $?
-ne 0 ]
# Make sure this matches
postmap -q example.org pcre:foo.pcre.in >/dev/null
# Install the map when the preconditions are met
rsync foo.pcre.in foo.pcre
You get to decide which assertions to test.
