synapse_port_db(1) -- A script to port an existing synapse SQLite database to a new PostgreSQL database.
=============================================
## SYNOPSIS
`synapse_port_db` [-v] --sqlite-database=<dbfile> --postgres-config=<yamlconfig> [--curses] [--batch-size=<batch-size>]
## DESCRIPTION
**synapse_port_db** ports an existing synapse SQLite database to a new
PostgreSQL database.
SQLite database is specified with `--sqlite-database` option and
PostgreSQL configuration required to connect to PostgreSQL database is
provided using `--postgres-config` configuration. The configuration
is specified in YAML format.
## OPTIONS
* `-v`:
Print log messages in `debug` level instead of `info` level.
* `--sqlite-database`:
The snapshot of the SQLite database file. This must not be
currently used by a running synapse server.
* `--postgres-config`:
The database config file for the PostgreSQL database.
* `--curses`:
Display a curses based progress UI.
## CONFIG FILE
The postgres configuration file must be a valid YAML file with the
following options.
* `database`:
Database configuration section. This section header can be
ignored and the options below may be specified as top level
keys.
* `name`:
Connector to use when connecting to the database. This value must
be `psycopg2`.
* `args`:
DB API 2.0 compatible arguments to send to the `psycopg2` module.
* `dbname` - the database name
* `user` - user name used to authenticate
* `password` - password used to authenticate
* `host` - database host address (defaults to UNIX socket if not
provided)
* `port` - connection port number (defaults to 5432 if not
provided)
* `synchronous_commit`:
Optional. Default is True. If the value is `False`, enable
asynchronous commit and don't wait for the server to call fsync
before ending the transaction. See:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/wal-async-commit.html
Following example illustrates the configuration file format.
