PostgreSQL native SQLDelight driver

A native Postgres driver using libpq.

You can use the driver with SQLDelight, but this is not required.

Keep in mind, until now, this is only a single-threaded wrapper over libpq using 1 connection only. There is no connection pool nor multithread support (like JDBC or R2DBC).

Install

You need libpq installed and available in your $PATH.

This package is uploaded to MavenCentral and supports macOS and linuxX64. Windows is currently not supported.

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation("app.softwork:postgres-native-sqldelight-driver:LATEST")
}

// optional SQLDelight setup:
sqldelight {
    databases.register("NativePostgres") {
        dialect("app.softwork:postgres-native-sqldelight-dialect:LATEST")
    }
    linkSqlite.set(false)
}

Usage

val driver = PostgresNativeDriver(
    host = "localhost",
    port = 5432,
    user = "postgres",
    database = "postgres",
    password = "password",
    options = null,
    listenerSupport = ListenerSupport.Remote(coroutineScope)
)

Listeners

This driver supports local and remote listeners. Local listeners only notify this client, ideally for testing or using the database with only one client at a time. Remote listener support uses NOTIFY and LISTEN, so you can use this to sync multiple clients or with existing database triggers. SQLDelight uses and expects the table name as payload, but you can provide a mapper function.

SQLDelight Support

Just create the driver and use your database instances in the usual way.

Raw usage

Beside SQLDelight you could also use this driver with raw queries. The identifier is used to reuse prepared statements.

driver.execute(identifier = null, sql = "INSERT INTO foo VALUES (42)", parameters = 0, binders = null)

It also supports a real lazy cursor by using a Flow. The fetchSize parameter defines how many rows are fetched at once:

val namesFlow: Flow<Simple> = driver.executeQueryAsFlow(
    identifier = null,
    sql = "SELECT index, name, bytes FROM foo",
    mapper = { cursor ->
        Simple(
            index = cursor.getLong(0)!!.toInt(),
            name = cursor.getString(1),
            byteArray = cursor.getBytes(2)
        )
    },
    parameters = 0,
    fetchSize = 100,
    binders = null
)

And for bulk imports, use the copy method. You need to enable COPY first:

driver.execute(514394779, "COPY foo FROM STDIN (FORMAT CSV)", 0)
val rows = driver.copy("1,2,3\n4,5,6\n")

Devcontainers

Start the devcontainer, that's it.

Local

docker compose

This is the preferred local option. The app service contains the JVM as well as libpq.

Manual

You need to install libpq, eg using Homebrew: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/libpq#default

For installation using homebrew, the default path is already added.

Otherwise, you have to add the compiler flags to the libpq.def. The exact flags depend on your config, for example:

For compilers to find libpq you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/libpq/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/libpq/include"
Testing

If you installed libpq with homebrew, it will install the platform-specific artifact.

To test other platforms, eg. linux x64 on macOS, you need to install the platform-specific libpq of linux x64 too.

To start the postgres instance, you can use docker:

docker run -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password -p 5432:5432 postgres
