Use Unlogged Tables in PostgreSQL
fabriziomello opened this issue · comments
Unlogged Tables was first introduced at PostgreSQL 9.1. From release notes:
- Support unlogged tables using the UNLOGGED option in CREATE TABLE (Robert Haas)
Such tables provide better update performance than regular tables, but are not crash-safe: their contents are automatically cleared in case of a server crash. Their contents do not propagate to replication slaves, either.
Wonder if can can add this statement here https://github.com/knadh/sql-jobber/blob/master/backends/sqldb.go#L282 ? And perhaps add a new config option unlogged = true
that works just for dbType=postgres
@fabriziomello yep, makes sense for this to be a config option unlogged = true/false
. To carry this config through, it might make sense to refactor NewSQLBackend() a backends.Opt{}
instead of the two individual dbType, resTable
params, along with the new unlogged
bool.
Edit: Woops, just saw the PR #14. If you could incorporate this as a config setting, that'd be perfect.
@knadh Pushed another version with proposed refactoring
