## Problem https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8588 implemented the mechanism for storage controller leadership transfers. However, there's no tests that exercise the behaviour. ## Summary of changes 1. Teach `neon_local` how to handle multiple storage controller instances. Each storage controller instance gets its own subdirectory (`storage_controller_1, ...`). `storage_controller start|stop` subcommands have also been extended to optionally accept an instance id. 2. Add a storage controller proxy test fixture. It's a basic HTTP server that forwards requests from pageserver and test env to the currently configured storage controller. 3. Add a test which exercises storage controller leadership transfer. 4. Finally fix a couple bugs that the test surfaced
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.
