Sybase has a feature to turn off replication at the session level: set
replication = off, which can be temporarily turned off when there is a
maintenance action on the table. Our users also want this feature.
I add a new flag bit in xinfo, control it with a session-level variable,
when set to true, this flag is written when the transaction is
committed, and when the logic is decoded it abandons the transaction
like aborted transactions. Since PostgreSQL has two types of
replication, I call the variable "logical_replication" to avoid
confusion and default value is true.
Sample SQL
insert into a values(100);
set logical_replication to off;
insert into a values(200);
reset logical_replication;
insert into a values(300);
pg_recvlogical output(the second is not output.)
BEGIN 492
table public.a: INSERT: col1[integer]:100
COMMIT 492
BEGIN 494
table public.a: INSERT: col1[integer]:300
COMMIT 494
I'm not sure this is the most appropriate way. What do you think?
