Before this PR, `neon_local` would store a copy of a subset of the initial `pageserver.toml` in its `.neon/config`, e.g, `listen_pg_addr`. That copy is represented as `struct PageServerConf`. This copy was used to inform e.g., `neon_local endpoint` and other commands that depend on Pageserver about which port to connect to. The problem with that scheme is that the duplicated information in `.neon/config` can get stale if `pageserver.toml` is changed. This PR fixes that by eliminating populating `struct PageServerConf` from the `pageserver.toml`s. The `[[pageservers]]` TOML table in the `.neon/config` is obsolete. As of this PR, `neon_local` will fail to start and print an error informing about this change. Code-level changes: - Remove the `--pg-version` flag, it was only used for some checks during `neon_local init` - Remove the warn-but-continue behavior for when auth key creation fails but auth keys are not required. It's just complexity that is unjustified for a tool like `neon_local`. - Introduce a type-system-level distinction between the runtime state and the two (!) toml formats that are almost the same but not quite. - runtime state: `struct PageServerConf`, now without `serde` derives - toml format 1: the state in `.neon/config` => `struct OnDiskState` - toml format 2: the `neon_local init --config TMPFILE` that, unlike `struct OnDiskState`, allows specifying `pageservers` - Remove `[[pageservers]]` from the `struct OnDiskState` and load the data from the individual `pageserver.toml`s instead.
Control Plane and Neon Local
This crate contains tools to start a Neon development environment locally. This utility can be used with the cargo neon command.
Example: Start with Postgres 16
To create and start a local development environment with Postgres 16, you will need to provide --pg-version flag to 3 of the start-up commands.
cargo neon init --pg-version 16
cargo neon start
cargo neon tenant create --set-default --pg-version 16
cargo neon endpoint create main --pg-version 16
cargo neon endpoint start main
Example: Create Test User and Database
By default, cargo neon starts an endpoint with cloud_admin and postgres database. If you want to have a role and a database similar to what we have on the cloud service, you can do it with the following commands when starting an endpoint.
cargo neon endpoint create main --pg-version 16 --update-catalog true
cargo neon endpoint start main --create-test-user true
The first command creates neon_superuser and necessary roles. The second command creates test user and neondb database. You will see a connection string that connects you to the test user after running the second command.
