The goal of this project is to provide powerful insights into the PostgreSQL database for Rust apps that are not using the Heroku PostgreSQL plugin. Queries can be used to obtain information about a Postgres instance, that may be useful when analyzing performance issues. This includes information about locks, index usage, buffer cache hit ratios and vacuum statistics. Ruby API enables developers to easily integrate the tool into e.g. automatic monitoring tasks. + +You can check out this blog post for detailed step by step tutorial on how to [optimize PostgreSQL using PG Extras library](https://pawelurbanek.com/postgresql-fix-performance). + +Alternative versions: + +- [Ruby on Rails](https://github.com/pawurb/rails-pg-extras) + +- [NodeJS](https://github.com/pawurb/node-postgres-extras) + +- [Elixir](https://github.com/pawurb/ecto_psql_extras) + +- [Python](https://github.com/pawurb/python-pg-extras) + +- [Haskell](https://github.com/pawurb/haskell-pg-extras) + +## Installation + +In your Gemfile + +```ruby +gem "ruby-pg-extras" +``` + +`calls` and `outliers` queries require [pg_stat_statements](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/pgstatstatements.html) extension. + +You can check if it is enabled in your database by running: + +```ruby +RubyPgExtras.extensions +``` +You should see the similar line in the output: + +```bash +| pg_stat_statements | 1.7 | 1.7 | track execution statistics of all SQL statements executed | +``` + +`ssl_used` requires `sslinfo` extension, and `buffercache_usage`/`buffercache_usage` queries need `pg_buffercache`. You can enable them all by running: + +```ruby +RubyPgExtras.add_extensions +``` + +## Usage + +Gem expects the `ENV['RUBY_PG_EXTRAS_DATABASE_URL']` or `ENV['DATABASE_URL']` value in the following format: + +```ruby +ENV["DATABASE_URL"] = "postgresql://postgres:secret@localhost:5432/database_name" +``` + +Alternatively you can set it using the module class method: + +```ruby +RubyPgExtras.database_url = "postgresql://postgres:secret@localhost:5432/database_name" +``` + +You can run queries using a simple Ruby API: + +```ruby +RubyPgExtras.cache_hit +``` +```bash ++----------------+------------------------+ +| Index and table hit rate | ++----------------+------------------------+ +| name | ratio | ++----------------+------------------------+ +| index hit rate | 0.97796610169491525424 | +| table hit rate | 0.96724294813466787989 | ++----------------+------------------------+ +``` + +By default the ASCII table is displayed, to change to format you need to specify the `in_format` parameter (`[:display_table, :hash, :array, :raw]` options are available): + +```ruby +RubyPgExtras.cache_hit(in_format: :hash) => + + [{"name"=>"index hit rate", "ratio"=>"0.97796610169491525424"}, {"name"=>"table hit rate", "ratio"=>"0.96724294813466787989"}] + +RubyPgExtras.cache_hit(in_format: :array) => + + [["index hit rate", "0.97796610169491525424"], ["table hit rate", "0.96724294813466787989"]] + +RubyPgExtras.cache_hit(in_format: :raw) => + + # +``` + +Some methods accept an optional `args` param allowing you to customize queries: + +```ruby +RubyPgExtras.long_running_queries(args: { threshold: "200 milliseconds" }) + +``` + +You can customize the default `public` schema by setting `ENV['PG_EXTRAS_SCHEMA']` value. + +## Diagnose report + +The simplest way to start using pg-extras is to execute a `diagnose` method.
