The main goal of this project is to implement a performant and fully functional async PostgreSQL driver. This project has no interest in JDBC, it's supposed to be a clean room implementation for people interested in talking directly to PostgreSQL.
PostgreSQL protocol information and definition can be found here
- connect to a database with or without authentication (supports MD5 and cleartext authentication methods)
- receive database parameters
- receive database notices
- execute direct queries (without portals/prepared statements)
- portals/prepared statements
- parses most of the basic PostgreSQL types, other types are parsed as string
- date, time and timestamp types are handled as JodaTime objects and not as java.util.Date objects
- all work is done using the new
scala.concurrent.Futureandscala.concurrent.Promiseobjects
- more authentication mechanisms
- benchmark 5BD6 s
- more tests (run the
jacoco:coversbt task and see where you can improve) - timeout handler for initial handshare and queries
- implement byte array support
- fast, fast and faster
- small memory footprint
- avoid copying data as much as possible (we're always trying to use wrap and slice on buffers)
- easy to use, call a method, get a future or a callback and be happy
- never, ever, block
- all features covered by tests
- checkout the source code
- find bugs, find places where performance can be improved
- check the What is missing piece
- send a pull request with specs
