Dead simple async pool for tokio-postgres
Documentation

Deadpool for PostgreSQL Latest Version

Deadpool is a dead simple async pool for connections and objects of any type.

This crate implements a deadpool manager for tokio-postgres and also provides a statement cache by wrapping tokio_postgres::Client and tokio_postgres::Transaction.

Example

use deadpool_postgres::{Config, Manager, ManagerConfig, Pool, RecyclingMethod };
use tokio_postgres::{NoTls};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let mut cfg = Config::new();
    cfg.dbname = Some("deadpool".to_string());
    cfg.manager = Some(ManagerConfig { recycling_method: RecyclingMethod::Fast });
    let pool = cfg.create_pool(NoTls).unwrap();
    for i in 1..10 {
        let mut client = pool.get().await.unwrap();
        let stmt = client.prepare("SELECT 1 + $1").await.unwrap();
        let rows = client.query(&stmt, &[&i]).await.unwrap();
        let value: i32 = rows[0].get(0);
        assert_eq!(value, i + 1);
    }
}

Example with config and dotenv crate

# .env
PG.DBNAME=deadpool

use deadpool_postgres::{Manager, Pool};
use dotenv::dotenv;
use serde::Deserialize;
use tokio_postgres::{NoTls};

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
struct Config {
    pg: deadpool_postgres::Config
}

impl Config {
    pub fn from_env() -> Result<Self, ::config_crate::ConfigError> {
        let mut cfg = ::config_crate::Config::new();
        cfg.merge(::config_crate::Environment::new())?;
        cfg.try_into()
    }
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    dotenv().ok();
    let mut cfg = Config::from_env().unwrap();
    let pool = cfg.pg.create_pool(NoTls).unwrap();
    for i in 1..10 {
        let mut client = pool.get().await.unwrap();
        let stmt = client.prepare("SELECT 1 + $1").await.unwrap();
        let rows = client.query(&stmt, &[&i]).await.unwrap();
        let value: i32 = rows[0].get(0);
        assert_eq!(value, i + 1);
    }
}

Note: The code above uses the crate name config_crate because of the config feature and both features and dependencies share the same namespace. In your own code you will probably want to use ::config::ConfigError and ::config::Config instead.

Example using an existing tokio_postgres::Config object

use std::env;
use deadpool_postgres::{Manager, ManagerConfig, Pool, RecyclingMethod};
use tokio_postgres::{NoTls};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let mut pg_config = tokio_postgres::Config::new();
    pg_config.host_path("/run/postgresql");
    pg_config.host_path("/tmp");
    pg_config.user(env::var("USER").unwrap().as_str());
    pg_config.dbname("deadpool");
    let mgr_config = ManagerConfig {
        recycling_method: RecyclingMethod::Fast
    };
    let mgr = Manager::from_config(pg_config, NoTls, mgr_config);
    let pool = Pool::new(mgr, 16);
    for i in 1..10 {
        let mut client = pool.get().await.unwrap();
        let stmt = client.prepare("SELECT 1 + $1").await.unwrap();
        let rows = client.query(&stmt, &[&i]).await.unwrap();
        let value: i32 = rows[0].get(0);
        assert_eq!(value, i + 1);
    }
}

FAQ

  • The database is unreachable. Why does the pool creation not fail?

    Deadpool has identical startup and runtime behaviour and therefore the pool creation will never fail.

    If you want your application to crash on startup if no database connection can be established just call pool.get().await right after creating the pool.

  • Why are connections retrieved from the pool sometimes unuseable?

    In deadpool-postgres 0.5.5 a new recycling method was implemented which will become the default in 0.6. With that recycling method the manager no longer performs a test query prior returning the connection but relies solely on tokio_postgres::Client::is_closed instead. Under some rare circumstances (e.g. unreliable networks) this can lead to tokio_postgres not noticing a disconnect and reporting the connection as useable.

    The old and slightly slower recycling method can be enabled by setting ManagerConfig::recycling_method to RecyclingMethod::Verified or when using the config crate by setting PG.MANAGER.RECYCLING_METHOD=Verified.
