pgoutput-source-adapter

pgoutput-source-adapter adapts decoded pgoutput events into downstream change-event platform primitives.

The first supported target is the CDC Ecosystem:

Pgoutput::SourceAdapter::Cdc

It normalizes Pgoutput::Decoder::Events into CDC::Core::ChangeEvent and CDC::Core::TransactionEnvelope objects.

The pgoutput family remains standalone:

pgoutput-client   -> PostgreSQL logical replication transport
pgoutput-parser   -> pgoutput protocol messages
pgoutput-decoder  -> typed Ruby row-change events

This gem is the adapter layer:

Pgoutput::Decoder::Events
        |
        v
Pgoutput::SourceAdapter::Cdc
        |
        v
CDC::Core::ChangeEvent / TransactionEnvelope

That keeps the lower-level pgoutput gems usable outside the CDC Ecosystem while still providing a clean bridge into cdc-core for users building CDC platforms.

require "pgoutput/source_adapter"

The generated bundle gem require path also works:

require "pgoutput/source/adapter"

Normalize a decoded insert event:

adapter = Pgoutput::SourceAdapter::Cdc.new
change_event = adapter.normalize(decoded_insert)

change_event.operation
# => :insert

change_event.schema
change_event.table
change_event.new_values

Normalize a transaction-shaped batch:

results = adapter.normalize_many([
  decoded_begin,
  decoded_insert,
  decoded_update,
  decoded_commit
])

envelope = results.first
# => CDC::Core::TransactionEnvelope

For update and delete events, pgoutput may provide an old-key tuple. When it does, that tuple is used as the CDC::Core::ChangeEvent#primary_key.

For insert events, or for sources without old-key tuples, the adapter defaults to id / "id" when present.

You can provide your own resolver:

adapter = Pgoutput::SourceAdapter::Cdc.new(
  primary_key_resolver: ->(_event, values) { { "uuid" => values.fetch("uuid") } }
)

Each normalized event includes pgoutput metadata:

{
  "source" => "pgoutput",
  "relation_id" => 123,
  "pgoutput_event" => "Insert"
}

Additional metadata can be injected:

adapter = Pgoutput::SourceAdapter::Cdc.new(
  metadata_builder: ->(_event) { { pipeline: "default" } }
)

Pgoutput::SourceAdapter::Cdc

A compatibility alias is also provided for the generated gem path:

Pgoutput::Source::Adapter

This gem does not:

• connect to PostgreSQL
• parse pgoutput protocol messages
• decode PostgreSQL values
• run processors
• manage replication slots
• persist sink data

Those responsibilities belong to pgoutput-client, pgoutput-parser, pgoutput-decoder, runtime gems, or application code.
