PostgreSQL to Elasticsearch sync

PGSync <https://pgsync.com>_ is a middleware for syncing data from Postgres <https://www.postgresql.org>_ to Elasticsearch <https://www.elastic.co/products/elastic-stack>.
It allows you to keep Postgres <https://www.postgresql.org>
as your source of truth data source and expose structured denormalized documents in Elasticsearch <https://www.elastic.co/products/elastic-stack>_.

Requirements

  • Python <https://www.python.org>_ 3.6+
  • Postgres <https://www.postgresql.org>_ 9.4+
  • Redis <https://redis.io>_
  • Elasticsearch <https://www.elastic.co/products/elastic-stack>_ 6.3.1+

Postgres setup

Enable logical decoding <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/logicaldecoding.html>_ in your Postgres setting.

  • you would also need to set up two parameters in your Postgres config postgresql.conf

    wal_level = logical

    max_replication_slots = 1

Installation

You can install PGSync from PyPI <https://pypi.org>_:

$ pip install pgsync

Config

Create a schema for the application named e.g schema.json

Example schema <https://github.com/toluaina/pgsync/blob/master/examples/airbnb/schema.json>_
