pg_later
Execute SQL now and get the results later.
A postgres extension to execute queries asynchronously. Built on pgmq.
Installation
Run with docker
bash
docker run -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres quay.io/tembo/pglater-pg:latest
If you'd like to build from source, you can follow the instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md.
Using the extension
Initialize the extension's backend:
```sql CREATE EXTENSION pg_later CASCADE;
SELECT pglater.init(); ```
Execute a SQL query now:
```sql select pglater.exec( 'select * from pg_available_extensions order by name limit 2' ) as job_id;
job_id
1
(1 row) ```
Come back at some later time, and retrieve the results by providing the job id:
```sql select pglater.fetch_results(1);
pg_later_results
{ "query": "select * from pg_available_extensions order by name limit 2", "job_id": 1, "result": [ { "name": "adminpack", "comment": "administrative functions for PostgreSQL", "default_version": "2.1", "installed_version": null }, { "name": "amcheck", "comment": "functions for verifying relation integrity", "default_version": "1.3", "installed_version": null } ], "status": "success" } ```
