PostgreSQL Plugin for StreamFlow

Installation

Simply install the package directory from PyPI using pip. StreamFlow will automatically recognise it as a plugin and load it at each workflow execution.

pip install streamflow-postgresql

If everything worked correctly, whenever a workflow execution start the following message should be printed in the log:

Successfully registered plugin streamflow_postgresql.plugin.PostgreSQLStreamFlowPlugin

Usage

This plugin registers a new Database component, which extends the StreamFlow CachedDatabase class. To declare it, put the following lines inside a streamflow.yml configuration file.

database:
  type: unito.postgresql
  config:
    dbname: <dbname>               # The name of the database to use
    hostname: <hostname>           # The database hostname or IP address
    password: <password>           # Password to use when connecting to the database
    username: <username>           # Username to use when connecting to the database
