Postgres to elasticsearch sync

Project description

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>_ 9.6+
  • 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>_

.. code-block::

[
    {
        "database": "[database name]",

        "nodes": {
            "table": "[table A]",
            "schema": "[table A schema]",
            "columns": [
                "column 1 from table A",
                "column 2 from table A",
                ... additional columns
            ],
            "children": [
                {
                    "table": "[table B with relationship to table A]",
                    "schema": "[table B schema]",
                    "columns": [
                      "column 1 from table B",
                      "column 2 from table B",
                      ... additional columns
                    ],
                    "relationship": {
                        "variant": "object",
                        "type": "one_to_many"
                    },
                    ...
                },
                {
                    ... any other additional children
