używanie asynchronicznego klejnotu postgresql

pg Biblioteka zapewnia pełne wsparcie dla asynchronicznego API PostgreSQL. Dodałem przykład jak go używać do samples/ katalog:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'pg'

# This is a example of how to use the asynchronous API to query the
# server without blocking other threads. It's intentionally low-level;
# if you hooked up the PGconn#socket to some kind of reactor, you
# could make this much nicer.

TIMEOUT = 5.0 # seconds to wait for an async operation to complete
CONN_OPTS = {
    :host     => 'localhost',
    :dbname   => 'test',
    :user     => 'jrandom',
    :password => 'banks!stealUR$',
}

# Print 'x' continuously to demonstrate that other threads aren't
# blocked while waiting for the connection, for the query to be sent,
# for results, etc. You might want to sleep inside the loop or 
# comment this out entirely for cleaner output.
progress_thread = Thread.new { loop { print 'x' } }

# Output progress messages
def output_progress( msg )
    puts "\n>>> #{msg}\n"
end

# Start the connection
output_progress "Starting connection..."
conn = PGconn.connect_start( CONN_OPTS ) or 
    abort "Unable to create a new connection!"
abort "Connection failed: %s" % [ conn.error_message ] if
    conn.status == PGconn::CONNECTION_BAD

# Now grab a reference to the underlying socket so we know when the
# connection is established
socket = IO.for_fd( conn.socket )

# Track the progress of the connection, waiting for the socket to 
# become readable/writable before polling it
poll_status = PGconn::PGRES_POLLING_WRITING
until poll_status == PGconn::PGRES_POLLING_OK ||
      poll_status == PGconn::PGRES_POLLING_FAILED

    # If the socket needs to read, wait 'til it becomes readable to
    # poll again
    case poll_status
    when PGconn::PGRES_POLLING_READING
        output_progress "  waiting for socket to become readable"
        select( [socket], nil, nil, TIMEOUT ) or
            raise "Asynchronous connection timed out!"

    # ...and the same for when the socket needs to write
    when PGconn::PGRES_POLLING_WRITING
        output_progress "  waiting for socket to become writable"
        select( nil, [socket], nil, TIMEOUT ) or
            raise "Asynchronous connection timed out!"
    end

    # Output a status message about the progress
    case conn.status
    when PGconn::CONNECTION_STARTED
        output_progress "  waiting for connection to be made."
    when PGconn::CONNECTION_MADE
        output_progress "  connection OK; waiting to send."
    when PGconn::CONNECTION_AWAITING_RESPONSE
        output_progress "  waiting for a response from the server."
    when PGconn::CONNECTION_AUTH_OK
        output_progress "  received authentication; waiting for " +
                        "backend start-up to finish."
    when PGconn::CONNECTION_SSL_STARTUP
        output_progress "  negotiating SSL encryption."
    when PGconn::CONNECTION_SETENV
        output_progress "  negotiating environment-driven " +
                        "parameter settings."
    end

    # Check to see if it's finished or failed yet
    poll_status = conn.connect_poll
end

abort "Connect failed: %s" % [ conn.error_message ] unless 
    conn.status == PGconn::CONNECTION_OK

output_progress "Sending query"
conn.send_query( "SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity" )

# Fetch results until there aren't any more
loop do
    output_progress "  waiting for a response"

    # Buffer any incoming data on the socket until a full result 
    # is ready. 
    conn.consume_input
    while conn.is_busy
        select( [socket], nil, nil, TIMEOUT ) or
            raise "Timeout waiting for query response."
        conn.consume_input
    end

    # Fetch the next result. If there isn't one, the query is 
    # finished
    result = conn.get_result or break

    puts "\n\nQuery result:\n%p\n" % [ result.values ]
end

output_progress "Done."
conn.finish

if defined?( progress_thread )
    progress_thread.kill
    progress_thread.join
end

Zalecam przeczytanie dokumentacji na PQconnectStart i asynchroniczne przetwarzanie poleceń sekcji podręcznika PostgreSQL, a następnie porównaj to z powyższym przykładem.

Nie używałem wcześniej EventMachine, ale jeśli pozwala zarejestrować gniazdo i wywołania zwrotne, gdy stanie się ono czytelne/zapisane, myślę, że integracja z nim wywołań bazy danych byłaby dość łatwa.

Miałem zamiar wykorzystać pomysły w Artykuł Ilyi Grigorika na temat używania Fibers do czyszczenia kodu po zdarzeniach aby asynchroniczny interfejs API był łatwiejszy w użyciu, ale to droga. Mam bilet otwórz aby go śledzić, jeśli jesteś zainteresowany/zmotywowany do zrobienia tego sam.
