Description

  • Postgrex.ReplicationConnection behavior
  • Configurable: should be able to setup the replication connection however a tenant would want
  • Verify configuration on connection and error if tenant publication does not match expected configuration

Why?

  • Trigger hooks from matching records somehow
  • Bust any query caches based off of the write ahead log

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research the Postgrex.ReplicationConnection behavior and implement a module that uses it to subscribe to write ahead logs. Set up a replication slot and publication for each tenant.
