NAME

       londiste - PostgreSQL replication engine written in python

SYNOPSIS

       [londiste]
       job_name = asd

DESCRIPTION

       The londiste configuration file follow the famous .INI syntax. It contains only one section named londiste.

       Most defaults values are reasonable ones. That means you can only edit provider_db, subscriber_db and pgq_queue_name and be done with
       londiste configuration.

OPTIONS

       You can configure the following options into the londiste section.

       job_name
	   Each Skytools daemon process must have a unique job_name. Londiste uses it also as consumer name when subscribing to queue.

       provider_db
	   Provider database connection string (DSN).

       subscriber_db
	   Subscriber database connection string (DSN).

       pgq_queue_name
	   Name of the queue to read from. Several subscribers can read from same queue.

       logfile
	   Where to log londiste activity.

       pidfile
	   Where to store the pid of the main londiste process, the replay one.

       lock_timeout
	   Few operations take lock on provider (provider add/remove, compare, repair). This parameter specifies timeout in seconds (float) how
	   long a lock can be held. New in version 2.1.8. Default: 10

       loop_delay
	   How often to poll events from provider. In seconds (float). Default: 1.

       pgq_lazy_fetch
	   How many events to fetch at a time when processing a batch. Useful when you know a single transaction (maintenance UPDATE command,
	   e.g.) will produce a lot of events in a single batch. When lazily fetching, a cursor is used so as to still process a single batch in a
	   single transaction. Default: 0, always fetch all events of the batch, not using a cursor.

       log_count
	   Number of log files to keep. Default: 3

       log_size
	   Max size for one log file. File is rotated if max size is reached. Default: 10485760 (10M)

       use_skylog
	   If set, search for [./skylog.ini, ~/.skylog.ini, /etc/skylog.ini]. If found then the file is used as config file for Pythons logging
	   module. It allows setting up fully customizable logging setup. Default: 0

EXAMPLE

	   [londiste]
	   job_name = test_to_subcriber

	   provider_db = dbname=provider port=6000 host=127.0.0.1
	   subscriber_db = dbname=subscriber port=6000 host=127.0.0.1

	   # it will be used as sql ident so no dots/spaces
	   pgq_queue_name = londiste.replika

	   logfile = /tmp/%(job_name)s.log
	   pidfile = /tmp/%(job_name)s.pid
