Summary of Changes
Hello @evkuzin, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
I've addressed an inconsistency where PostgreSQL monitor connections were not honoring the use_ssl setting from pgsql_servers, instead defaulting to sslmode=prefer. This pull request resolves this by modifying the connection string builder to explicitly set sslmode=require or sslmode=disable based on the configured use_ssl setting. This ensures that monitor connections behave consistently with other client connections regarding SSL, improving security and predictability.
Highlights
- PostgreSQL Monitor SSL Consistency: I've modified the
build_conn_str()function inlib/PgSQL_Monitor.cppto ensure that PostgreSQL monitor connections now properly respect theuse_sslsetting configured for the server. - Explicit SSL Mode Configuration: The
build_conn_str()function now explicitly appendssslmode=requireto the connection string whenuse_ssl=1andsslmode=disablewhenuse_ssl=0, overriding the previous default behavior ofsslmode=prefer.

Code Review
This pull request correctly adds SSL settings to the monitor connection string for PostgreSQL, ensuring consistency with the configured use_ssl setting. The implementation is straightforward and correct. I've suggested a minor refactoring to make the code more concise and align it with the original style of the function, which improves maintainability.

Problem
PostgreSQL monitor connections were not respecting the
use_sslsetting from pgsql_servers and defaulting to sslmode=prefer. This creates inconsistency between regular client connections and monitor behavior, which is not ideal.Solution
Modified
build_conn_str()inPgSQL_Monitor.cppto explicitly set:sslmode=requirewhenuse_ssl=1sslmode=disablewhenuse_ssl=0This ensures monitor connections behave consistently with the configured SSL settings.
