pg_dump 的十六般变化

Easy Dump

While you are upgrading from PostgreSQL earlier releases like PostgreSQL 9.1 to later releases like PostgreSQL 11, pg_dump and pg_upgrade provided by PostgreSQL are the most reliable and most powerful tools.

pg_dump is more flexible and can also be used to dump some of databases or tables to another instance.

Easy Dump is a simple shell script to make PostgreSQL pg_dump easier.

With Easy Dump, you are able to dump databases or tables into another PostgreSQL instance easily in one command line.

Apart from the dump functionality, Easy Dump also sends successful notifications and checks errors when dump or restore failed and sends failure notifications with details in cases like invalid password is given or no proper ACL is given, so that you are informed timely with helpful information.

Easy Dump introduction

Easy Dump Overview

Easy Dump is written with library Easy Bash and provides 5 dump modes to support 16 most useful cases.

Why use Easy Bash

Easy Bash is a simple bash library to make scripting easier.

With Easy Bash, you are able to parse command line parameters with only one line(15 characters):

parse_args "$@"

In fact, there is much more Easy Bash can do.

Easy Bash helps you write simple, efficient and colorful scripts easily.

You no longer need to do the following manually:

  1. parse all the arguments manually
  2. set variables manually
  3. write help message manually
  4. write config file manually
  5. check whether all required parameters are set manually
  6. write logs manually

And you are able to do the following easily:

  1. add options easily
  2. parse options easily
  3. do dry run test easily
  4. write colorful logs easily
  5. write and show different levels of logs easily
  6. send messages easily

Easy Bash Overview

Here is an overview of the functionalities of Easy Bash.

Example data

Source PostgreSQL instance

Host: alvindb1.dbadaily.com

Port: 5432

PostgreSQL version: PostgreSQL 9.1

To illustrate the usage of Easy Dump, on the source PostgreSQL instance, create one user and three databases including tables.

Create user

CREATE USER alvin WITH PASSWORD 'alvin';

Create databases and tables

Database alvindb

Create database alvindb and schema alvin.

CREATE DATABASE alvindb OWNER alvin;
\c alvindb
CREATE SCHEMA alvin AUTHORIZATION alvin;

Create tables.

\c alvindb alvin
CREATE TABLE tb_alvindb_vacuum (
    test_id BIGSERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

CREATE TABLE tb_alvindb_sequence (
    test_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

CREATE TABLE tb_alvindb_test (
    test_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

INSERT INTO tb_alvindb_vacuum(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;
INSERT INTO tb_alvindb_sequence(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;
INSERT INTO tb_alvindb_test(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;

Database dbadaily

Create database dbadaily.

CREATE DATABASE dbadaily OWNER alvin;

Create tables.

\c dbadaily alvin

CREATE TABLE tb_dbadaily_vacuum (
    test_id BIGSERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

CREATE TABLE tb_dbadaily_sequence (
    test_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

CREATE TABLE tb_dbadaily_test (
    test_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

INSERT INTO tb_dbadaily_vacuum(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;
INSERT INTO tb_dbadaily_sequence(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;
INSERT INTO tb_dbadaily_test(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;

Database testdb

Create database testdb.

CREATE DATABASE testdb OWNER alvin;

Create tables.

\c testdb alvin

CREATE TABLE tb_testdb_vacuum (
    test_id BIGSERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

CREATE TABLE tb_testdb_sequence (
    test_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

CREATE TABLE tb_testdb_test (
    test_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    test_num BIGINT
);

INSERT INTO tb_testdb_vacuum(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;
INSERT INTO tb_testdb_sequence(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;
INSERT INTO tb_testdb_test(test_num) SELECT gid FROM generate_series(1,3,1) gid;

Target PostgreSQL instance

Host: alvindb2.dbadaily.com

Port: 5432

PostgreSQL version: PostgreSQL 11

Dump options

Pure shell library Easy Bash provides an easy way to add and parse options.

Add options as below.

add_main_options() {
  ## custom options
  # source db
  add_options "h:" "host:" "DBHOST" "Y" "source database server host or socket directory"
  add_options "p:" "port:" "DBPORT" "Y" "source database server port number"
  add_options "U:" "username:" "DBUSER" "Y" "source database user name"
  add_options "W:" "password:" "PGPASSWORD" "Y" "source database user password"
  add_options "d:" "dbname:" "DBNAME" "N" "source database name to connect to"

  # target db
  add_options "P:" "target-port:" "DBPORT_TARGET" "Y" "target database server port number"
  add_options "B:" "bin-dir:" "PGBIN" "Y" "PostgreSQL bin directory"

  # dump modes
  add_options "M:" "mode:" "DUMP_MODE" "Y" "dump modes: ALL USERS DBS DB TABLE"
  # ALL mode
  add_options "s" "schema-only" "SCHEMA_ONLY" "N" "SCHEMA mode: dump only the schema, no data"
  # ALL or DBS mode
  add_options "D:" "databases:" "DATABASES" "N" "ALL mode: databases(separated by space) to dump"
  # DB or TABLE mode
  add_options "T:" "tables:" "DBTABLES" "N" "tables(separated by space) to dump. DB mode: dump tables in parallel; TABLE mode: tables to dump"
  # DB mode
  add_options "E:" "excludetables:" "DBTABLES_EXCLUDE" "N" "tables to exclude"

  # other options
  add_options "u" "users" "DUMP_ALL_USERS" "N" "dump all users regardless of dump mode"
  add_options "L" "parallel" "PARALLEL_IND" "N" "parallel indicator"
  add_options "t:" "sleep-time:" "SLEEP_TIME" "N" "time to sleep between dumps"

  ### common options
  ## 1. options like m: or emails: can be changed
  ## 2. variable names like RECIPIENTS are NOT expected to be changed as they are used in shared functions
  add_options "m:" "email:" "RECIPIENTS" "N" "emails(separated by space) to receive notifications"
  add_options "S" "success-notification" "SUCCESS_NOTIFICATION_IND" "N" "indication whether to send success notifications"
  add_options "C" "check" "CHECK_MODE" "N" "don't make any changes"
  add_options "G" "generate-config" "GEN_CONFIG" "N" "generate config file if not exists"

Generate config file

Using Easy Bash built-in options -G and -w to generate a config file and write static variables into the config file, so that only a few options need to be provided by command line.

bash pg_dump.sh -h alvindb1.dbadaily.com -p 5432 -U postgres -P 5432 -B "/usr/pg11/bin/" -m "alvin@dbadaily.com" -W postgres -S -G -w
[2022-05-15 20:54:09 INFO] [parse_args] config file generated with values: /data/scripts/easybash/easydump/config.sh

After config file generated, command

bash pg_dump.sh -v -M USERS

is equivalent to

bash pg_dump.sh -h alvindb1.dbadaily.com -p 5432 -U postgres -P 5432 -B "/usr/pg11/bin/" -m "alvin@dbadaily.com" -W postgres -S -v -M USERS

Check the config file.

$ cat /data/scripts/easybash/easydump/config.sh
# source database server host or socket directory
export DBHOST="alvindb1.dbadaily.com"

# source database server port number
export DBPORT="5432"

# source database user name
export DBUSER="postgres"

# source database user password
export PGPASSWORD="postgres"

# source database name to connect to
export DBNAME=""

# target database server port number
export DBPORT_TARGET="5432"

# PostgreSQL bin directory
export PGBIN="/usr/pg11/bin/"

# dump modes: ALL USERS DBS DB TABLE
export DUMP_MODE=""

# SCHEMA mode: dump only the schema, no data
export SCHEMA_ONLY=""

# ALL mode: databases(separated by space) to dump
export DATABASES=""

# tables(separated by space) to dump. DB mode: dump tables in parallel; TABLE mode: tables to dump
export DBTABLES=""

# tables to exclude
export DBTABLES_EXCLUDE=""

# dump all users regardless of dump mode
export DUMP_ALL_USERS=""

# parallel indicator
export PARALLEL_IND=""

# time to sleep between dumps
export SLEEP_TIME=""

# emails(separated by space) to receive notifications
export RECIPIENTS="alvin@dbadaily.com"

# indication whether to send success notifications
export SUCCESS_NOTIFICATION_IND="Y"

# don't make any changes
export CHECK_MODE=""

Dump modes

Following commands are expected to be run on the host where data will be dumped to.

Together with Easy Dump commands, PostgreSQL pg_dump equivalents are provided for reference and a better understanding.

While most frequently used cases are covered by Easy Dump, you might meet rare or custom cases. Refer to the PostgreSQL pg_dump equivalents to write your own commands.

USERS

Dump roles only

In some cases you might dump all users first, then add or remove or update user passwords as needed.

  1. If you are just separating one database from a huge instance on which there are multiple databases, you might need only users related
  2. Not all passwords are same between the old instance and the new instance, such as the replicator password

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

ALL

In ALL mode, users will always be dumped.

Dump all schema only

In some cases you might only need the schema or just upgrade database with schema only to discover issues in advance instead of the time consuming dump with data.

Dump all schema and data

This is one of the frequently used modes.

If you need to dump all the databases and users in one of the following cases, just use this easiest way to dump a PostgreSQL instance.

  1. The instance size is quite small
  2. You have got enough time to wait for the hours long dump

Dump specified databases

In some cases you need all the users but not all the databases.

  1. You are just separating one or more databases from a huge instance on which there are multiple databases
  2. You just don't need other databases

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

Dump roles first.

time "${PGBIN}"/pg_dumpall -v -U "${DBUSER}" -h "${DBHOST}" -p "${DBPORT}" -g 2>>"${lv_dump_log}" | "${PGBIN}"/psql -U postgres -p "${DBPORT_TARGET}" -e &>>"${lv_restore_log}"

Then dump specified databases one by one manually.

time "${PGBIN}"/pg_dump -v -U "${DBUSER}" -h "${DBHOST}" -p "${DBPORT}" -d "${lv_dbname}" 2>>"${lv_dump_log}" | "${PGBIN}"/psql -U postgres -p "${DBPORT_TARGET}" -d "${lv_dbname}" -e &>>"${lv_restore_log}"

Dump all databases in parallel

In some cases you need all the users and all the databases, but some databases are quite large.

  1. PostgreSQL instance to be upgraded contains one or more databases with large size
  2. You need to minimize the dump time to reduce the affect on the application

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

Dump roles first.

Then dump all databases one by one in parallel manually.

DBS

In DBS mode, users will not be dumped by default. You can add option -u or --users to always dump users.

Dump all databases

In some cases you need to dump the users separately and need all the databases.

  1. The instance size is quite small

  2. You have got enough time to wait for the hours long dump

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

Dump all databases one by one manually.

Dump all databases in parallel

In some cases you need to dump the users separately and all the databases, but some databases are quite large.

  1. PostgreSQL instance to be upgraded contains one or more databases with large size
  2. You need to minimize the dump time to reduce the affect on the application

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

Dump all databases one by one in parallel manually.

DB

In DB mode, users will not be dumped by default. You can add option -u or --users to always dump users.

Dump all tables

This is one of the frequently used modes.

In some cases you need to dump the users separately and then dump the database.

  1. The database size is quite small

  2. You've got enough time to wait for the hours long dump

  3. You are separating one database from a huge instance on which there are multiple databases or you just don't need other databases

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

Dump all tables with exclusion

In some cases you need to dump a database and exclude some tables.

  1. Some tables are not related or belong to other projects
  2. There are some testing tables
  3. Some logging tables are quite large and the data is not needed

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

You can use one -T option to specify table pattern. Please note that the table pattern is not regular expression and in rare cases like same table name exists in in various schema it might not work as expected.

time "${PGBIN}"/pg_dump -v -U "${DBUSER}" -h "${DBHOST}" -p "${DBPORT}" -d "${lv_dbname}" -T "public|alvin.tb_test|tb_alvindb_test" 2>>"${lv_dump_log}" | "${PGBIN}"/psql -U postgres -p "${DBPORT_TARGET}" -d "${lv_dbname}" -e &>>"${lv_restore_log}"

You can also use multiple -T options to specify all tables to be excluded.

time "${PGBIN}"/pg_dump -v -U "${DBUSER}" -h "${DBHOST}" -p "${DBPORT}" -d "${lv_dbname}" -T "public.tb_test" -T "alvin.tb_alvindb_test" 2>>"${lv_dump_log}" | "${PGBIN}"/psql -U postgres -p "${DBPORT_TARGET}" -d "${lv_dbname}" -e &>>"${lv_restore_log}"

Easy Dump command

It uses table pattern. Please note that in rare cases like same table name exists in in various schema it might not work as expected.

Always run in check mode( -C ) first to check matching tables. In rare cases, please use PostgreSQL pg_dump command.

Dump all tables, specified tables are dumped in parallel

This is one of the frequently used modes.

In some cases you need to dump a database and dump some of the tables in parallel.

  1. PostgreSQL database to be dumped contains one or more huge tables or time consuming tables
  2. You need to minimize the dump time to reduce the affect on the application

PostgreSQL pg_dump command

Firstly dump the database with exclusion.

You can use one -T option to specify table pattern. Please note that the table pattern is not regular expression and in rare cases like same table name exists in in various schema it might not work as expected.

You can also use multiple -T options to specify all tables to be excluded.

Conclusion

Easy Dump employs the advantages of Easy Bash and utilizes powerful and flexible pg_dump to provide an easier and friendly way to dump.

It provides 5 dump modes and 16 most useful cases and is more helpful in following two situations:

  1. PostgreSQL instance to be upgraded contains several databases with large size
  2. PostgreSQL instance to be upgraded has one database in which there are several huge tables or time consuming tables
