ElectricSQL
What is ElectricSQL?
ElectricSQL allows developers to build fast, modern, collaborative apps without changing their stack
Notes on deployment
When creating the postgresql database, make sure to enable logical replication: adding wal_level = logical to your postgresql config should do it.
Environment Variables
- SERVICE_URL_ELECTRIC_3000: exposes port 3000 of electricsql: this is where your clients would connect
- DATABASE_URL: url of the postgresql database (with logical replication enabled)
- ELECTRIC_SECRET: secret electricsql will use to authenticate requests (more info here)
- ELECTRIC_STORAGE_DIR: electric needs to store some data, cache etc. This is where it'll go
- ELECTRIC_USAGE_REPORTING: allows configuration of anonymous usage data reporting back to https://electric-sql.com
