[pgpool-hackers: 4152] Re: Sample scripts in Python

[Bo Peng]

Hello,

I have been working with PgPool for the past few months and while I initially started with the sample bash scripts, later I re-wrote the failover and failback scripts in Python (for streaming replication). I also substituted the need for ssh by executing queries using the psql client (or psycopg2 package in case of Python).

Thank you for your proposal.

The advantage of using Pgpool-II is that users can use any custom scripts.
We are providing the sample bash scripts.

However,Pgpool-II community has no plans to include Python scripts in repository,
because we don't have so many resources to maintenance and test all of the scripts
with all supported Pgpool-II and PostgreSQL versions and OS.
