logical replication on 9.6: replica configuration - Mailing list pgsql-general

I need to create a read-only replica in AWS environment.  I can't use AWS/RDS built-in read replica functionaility due to security concerns, so I'm tied to using logical replication, on postgres 9.6.  How do I configure a replica db to receive the contents of the replication slot on master? 

I was able to get logical replication going with the following 2 commands:

SELECT pg_create_logical_replication_slot('test_slot', 'test_decoding');

pg_recvlogical -d test --slot test_slot --start -f - &

I'm very unclear on where to go from there to stand up a read-replica db.

Thanks,
