Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Forked from GraphQLCollege/graphql-postgres-subscriptions, where we replaced pg-ipc with pg-listen so that the database connection with retry and reconnect.

graphql-postgres-subscriptions

A graphql subscriptions implementation using postgres and apollo's graphql-subscriptions.

This package implements the PubSubEngine Interface from the graphql-subscriptions package and also the new AsyncIterator interface. It allows you to connect your subscriptions manger to a postgres based Pub Sub mechanism to support multiple subscription manager instances.

Installation

yarn add @originlabs/graphql-postgres-subscriptions-retry or npm install @originlabs/graphql-postgres-subscriptions-retry --save

Usage

Example app: https://github.com/GraphQLCollege/apollo-subscriptions-example

First of all, follow the instructions in graphql-subscriptions to add subscriptions to your app.

Afterwards replace PubSub with PostgresPubSub:

// Before
import { PubSub } from "graphql-subscriptions-retry";

export const pubsub = new PubSub();
// After
import { PostgresPubSub } from "graphql-postgres-subscriptions-retry";

export const pubsub = new PostgresPubSub();
await pubsub.connect()

Don't forget to await the connect() method, or else it will never start the connection with postgres.

This library uses pg-listen to connect to PostgreSQL. If you want to customize connection options, please refer to their connection docs.

You have two options:

If you don's send any argument to new PostgresPubSub(), we'll create a postgres client with no arguments.

You can also pass node-postgres connection options to PostgresPubSub.

Important: If you want to use the asyncIterator (which is used by graphql subscriptions) you need to pass them as an array of topics on the options parameter. This should be an array of all the topics/channels you want to subscribe to. The reason we need to know these ahead of time, is because otherwise it would be an async operation to add them or create the async iterator or use the asyncIteratorPromised function instead.

export const pubsub = new PostgresPubSub({
  topics: ['a', 'b', 'c']
})
await pubsub.connect()

commonMessageHandler

The second argument to new PostgresPubSub() is the commonMessageHandler. The common message handler gets called with the received message from PostgreSQL. You can transform the message before it is passed to the individual filter/resolver methods of the subscribers. This way it is for example possible to inject one instance of a DataLoader which can be used in all filter/resolver methods.

const getDataLoader = () => new DataLoader(...)
const commonMessageHandler = ({attributes: {id}, data}) => ({id, dataLoader: getDataLoader()})
const pubsub = new PostgresPubSub({ client, commonMessageHandler });
export const resolvers = {
  Subscription: {
    somethingChanged: {
      resolve: ({ id, dataLoader }) => dataLoader.load(id)
    }
  }
};

Error handling

Following how pg-listen works, PostgresPubSub instances have an events event emitter which emits 'error' events.

const ps = new PostgresPubSub();

ps.events.on("error", err => {
  console.log(err)
})

Shutdown

This fork provides a new async close():Promise<void> method that can be called to stop the listeners and release the pg connection for a clean shutdown.

Development

This project has an integration test suite that uses jest to make sure everything works correctly.

Run tests via docker compose: docker compose build docker compose up
