pgwatch v3-beta. Please test it as much as possible!

This is the next generation of pgwatch2.

Quick Start

For the fastest development experience the Docker compose file is provided:

git clone https://github.com/cybertec-postgresql/pgwatch.git && cd pgwatch

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml up --detach

 ✔ Network pgwatch_default       Created
 ✔ Container pgwatch-postgres-1  Healthy
 ✔ Container pgwatch-pgwatch-1  Started
 ✔ Container pgwatch-grafana-1   Started

These commands will build and start services listed in the compose file:

• configuration and metric database;
• pgwatch monitoring agent with WebUI;
• Grafana with dashboards.

Monitor Database

After start, you could open the monitoring dashboard and start looking at metrics.

To add a test database under monitoring, you can use built-in WebUI. Or simply execute from command line:

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml up add-test-db --force-recreate

Produce Workload

To emulate workload for added test database execute:

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml up pgbench

Inspect database

Important

pgAdmin uses port 80. If you want it to use another port, change it in docker-compose.yml file.

To look what is inside pgwatch database, you can spin up pgAdmin4:

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml up --detach pgadmin

Go to localhost in your favorite browser and login as admin@local.com, password admin. Server pgwatch should be already added in Servers group.

Development

If you apply any changes to the source code and want to restart the agent, it's usually enough to run:

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml up pgwatch --build --force-recreate --detach

The command above will rebuild the pgwatch agent from sources and relaunch the container.

Logs

If you are running containers in detached mode, you still can follow the logs:

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml logs --follow

Or you may check the log of a particular service:

docker compose -f ./docker/docker-compose.yml logs pgwatch --follow
