fdwctl

A PostgreSQL Foreign Data Wrapper (FDW) management CLI

Golang v1.18+ PostgreSQL v15+

Features | Installation | Usage | Configuration

What is it?

fdwctl is a command line tool to manage foreign servers, user mappings, and importing remote schemas using the PostgreSQL Foreign Data Wrapper (FDW).

What does it do?

fdwctl allows create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations on foreign servers, user mappings, and importing remote schemas with reasonably simple commands. It also can attempt to create local ENUM types that are used by a remote schema before importing that schema.

The CLI interface is written with the original intention of being used as part of Kubernetes deployments.

Features

  • Supports PostgreSQL postgres_fdw wrapper; support for other wrappers is pending
  • Can apply a desired configuration state to a database
  • Single, statically-linked binary; can be compiled on any platform supporting Golang 1.14+
  • Multiple log message formats (Text, JSON; Elasticstack schema support is pending)

Installation

go install https://github.com/neflyte/fdwctl/cmd/fdwctl

Examples

Create the postgres_fdw extension
fdwctl create extension postgres_fdw
Create a foreign server
fdwctl create server my-remotedb --serverhost remotedb1 --serverport 5432 --serverdbname remotedb
Create a user mapping
fdwctl create usermap --servername my-remotedb --localuser fdw --remoteuser remoteuser --remotepassword 'r3m0TE!'

Configuration

The application configuration file is in YAML format and is located at ${HOME}/.config/fdwctl/config.yaml. An explicit configuration file can be specified by using the --config argument. In addition to YAML, JSON format is also supported.

Example Configuration File

The following is an example of the application configuration file in YAML format.

FDWConnection: "host=localhost port=5432 dbname=fdw user=fdw sslmode=disable"
FDWConnectionSecret:
  value: "passw0rd"
DesiredState:
  Extensions:
    - name: postgres_fdw
  Servers:
    - name: remotedb
      host: remotedb1
      port: 5432
      db: remotedb
      UserMap:
        - localuser: fdw
          remoteuser: remoteuser
          remotesecret:
            value: "r3m0TE!"
            #fromEnv: "REMOTEDB_CREDENTIAL"
            #fromFile: /tmp/credential.txt
            #fromK8s:
              #namespace: default
              #secretName: my-secret-object
              #secretKey: postgresql-password
      Schemas:
        - localschema: remotedb
          remoteschema: public
          importenums: true
          enumconnection: "postgres://remoteuser@localhost:15432/remotedb?sslmode=disable"
          enumsecret:
            value: "r3m0TE!"
            #fromEnv: "REMOTEDB_CREDENTIAL"
