PostgreSQL sharding for go-pg and Golang

PostgreSQL sharding for go-pg and Golang

Build Status

❤️ Uptrace.dev - distributed traces, logs, and errors in one place

This package uses a go-pg PostgreSQL client to help sharding your data across a set of PostgreSQL servers as described in Sharding & IDs at Instagram. In 2 words it maps many (2048-8192) logical shards implemented using PostgreSQL schemas to far fewer physical PostgreSQL servers.

API docs: http://godoc.org/github.com/go-pg/sharding. Examples: http://godoc.org/github.com/go-pg/sharding#pkg-examples.

Installation

This package requires Go modules support:

go get github.com/go-pg/sharding/v8

Quickstart

package sharding_test

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/go-pg/sharding/v8"
	"github.com/go-pg/pg/v10"
)

// Users are sharded by AccountId, i.e. users with same account id are
// placed on the same shard.
type User struct {
	tableName string `pg:"?SHARD.users"`

	Id        int64
	AccountId int64
	Name      string
	Emails    []string
}

func (u User) String() string {
	return u.Name
}

// CreateUser picks shard by account id and creates user in the shard.
func CreateUser(cluster *sharding.Cluster, user *User) error {
	return cluster.Shard(user.AccountId).Insert(user)
}

// GetUser splits shard from user id and fetches user from the shard.
func GetUser(cluster *sharding.Cluster, id int64) (*User, error) {
	var user User
	err := cluster.SplitShard(id).Model(&user).Where("id = ?", id).Select()
	return &user, err

	fmt.Println(users[0], users[1])
	// Output: user1
	// user1 user2
