Array class

This is the encoder class for PostgreSQL array types in binary format.

All values are encoded according to the elements_type accessor. Sub-arrays are encoded recursively.

This encoder expects an Array of values or sub-arrays as input. Other values are passed through as byte string without interpretation.

It is possible to enforce a number of dimensions to be encoded by dimensions= . Deeper nested arrays are then passed to the elements encoder and less nested arrays raise an ArgumentError.

The accessors needs_quotation and delimiter are ignored for binary encoding.
