Enum OptionsMetadata.TextFormat (0.18.1)

public enum OptionsMetadata.TextFormat extends Enum<OptionsMetadata.TextFormat>

The PostgreSQL wire protocol can send data in both binary and text format. When using text format, the Server will normally send output back to the client using a format understood by PostgreSQL clients. If you are using the server with a text-only client that does not try to interpret the data that is returned by the server, such as for example psql, then it is advisable to use Cloud Spanner formatting. The server will then return all data in a format understood by Cloud Spanner.

The default format used by the server is TextFormat.
