neon/compute_tools/src/bin/compute_ctl.rs

//!
//! Postgres wrapper (`compute_ctl`) is intended to be run as a Docker entrypoint or as a `systemd`
//! `ExecStart` option. It will handle all the `Neon` specifics during compute node
//! initialization:
//! - `compute_ctl` accepts cluster (compute node) specification as a JSON file.
//! - Every start is a fresh start, so the data directory is removed and
//!   initialized again on each run.
//! - Next it will put configuration files into the `PGDATA` directory.
//! - Sync safekeepers and get commit LSN.
//! - Get `basebackup` from pageserver using the returned on the previous step LSN.
//! - Try to start `postgres` and wait until it is ready to accept connections.
//! - Check and alter/drop/create roles and databases.
//! - Hang waiting on the `postmaster` process to exit.
//!
//! Also `compute_ctl` spawns two separate service threads:
//! - `compute-monitor` checks the last Postgres activity timestamp and saves it
//!   into the shared `ComputeNode`;
//! - `http-endpoint` runs a Hyper HTTP API server, which serves readiness and the
//!   last activity requests.
//!
//! If the `vm-informant` binary is present at `/bin/vm-informant`, it will also be started. For VM
//! compute nodes, `vm-informant` communicates with the VM autoscaling system. It coordinates
//! downscaling and (eventually) will request immediate upscaling under resource pressure.
//!
//! Usage example:
//! ```sh
//! compute_ctl -D /var/db/postgres/compute \
//!             -C 'postgresql://cloud_admin@localhost/postgres' \
//!             -S /var/db/postgres/specs/current.json \
//!             -b /usr/local/bin/postgres
//! ```
