This PR is an off-by-default revision v2 of the (since-reverted) PR #6555 / commit `3220f830b7fbb785d6db8a93775f46314f10a99b`. See that PR for details on why running with a single runtime is desirable and why we should be ready. We reverted #6555 because it showed regressions in prodlike cloudbench, see the revert commit message `ad072de4209193fd21314cf7f03f14df4fa55eb1` for more context. This PR makes it an opt-in choice via an env var. The default is to use the 4 separate runtimes that we have today, there shouldn't be any performance change. I tested manually that the env var & added metric works. ``` # undefined env var => no change to before this PR, uses 4 runtimes ./target/debug/neon_local start # defining the env var enables one-runtime mode, value defines that one runtime's configuration NEON_PAGESERVER_USE_ONE_RUNTIME=current_thread ./target/debug/neon_local start NEON_PAGESERVER_USE_ONE_RUNTIME=multi_thread:1 ./target/debug/neon_local start NEON_PAGESERVER_USE_ONE_RUNTIME=multi_thread:2 ./target/debug/neon_local start NEON_PAGESERVER_USE_ONE_RUNTIME=multi_thread:default ./target/debug/neon_local start ``` I want to use this change to do more manualy testing and potentially testing in staging. Future Work ----------- Testing / deployment ergonomics would be better if this were a variable in `pageserver.toml`. It can be done, but, I don't need it right now, so let's stick with the env var.
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.
