Is this project still active? #81

Open biblicabeebli opened 4 years ago

biblicabeebli commented 4 years ago

This seems like a really useful tool, but there seem to be a lot of weird problems and issues like simple python 3 incompatibilities (exceptions no longer have .message attributes) and a lot of unaddressed issues.

If its not active I may pick it up.

@biblicabeebli or any one else interested. It would be great to get this tool back in active development. I find it most useful and convenient!

I use it nearly daily while developing Django applications (postgresql 12.4, python 3.8). As long as I remember to downgrade SQLAlchemy it still works well for me.

pip install SQLAlchemy==1.2.5 SQLAlchemy-Utils==0.33.1

My postgres background isn't up to this, but I could probably patch the python issues. After that would require reposting to pypi and dedicating time a maintainer.

I did not end up using this tool, my needs were met by just using postgres database dumps and some commandline aliases.

Using https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54868988/how-to-determine-which-forks-on-github-are-ahead/68335748#68335748 it seems that https://github.com/maxtacu/stellar5 by @maxtacu is the most up to date fork

@abitrolly looks like it is the most up to date. I also noticed that the original project seems dead for 4 years so I updated the dependencies and fixed some bugs to have it working properly, but let me know if you need additional features or further development and I will do my best to continue supporting it.

@maxtacu thanks. In fact I can't make restore work with PostgreSQL 10 Docker image. It looks similar to #44, because of the error message `"terminating connection due to administrator command", but I am not completely sure. I will try to make a small test case with GitHub Actions to demonstrate.

Reported the error I am getting while trying stellar with official PostgreSQL docker image https://github.com/fastmonkeys/stellar/issues/86

I wish there was a way to find the most active fork for this. Any suggestions?

I recently released DSLR which is intended to be a spiritual successor to Stellar. If you're using stellar for Postgres then I think it's a pretty good replacement.
