=========================== YAML Configuration Settings =========================== Global/Universal ---------------- - **name**: the name of the host. Must be unique for the cluster. - **namespace**: path within configuration store where Patroni will keep information about cluster. Default value: "/service" - **scope**: cluster name Bootstrap configuration ----------------------- - **dcs**: This section will be written into `///config` of a given configuration store after initializing of new cluster. This is the global configuration for the cluster. If you want to change some parameters for all cluster nodes - just do it in DCS (or via Patroni API) and all nodes will apply this configuration. - **loop\_wait**: the number of seconds the loop will sleep. Default value: 10 - **ttl**: the TTL to acquire the leader lock. Think of it as the length of time before initiation of the automatic failover process. Default value: 30 - **maximum\_lag\_on\_failover**: the maximum bytes a follower may lag to be able to participate in leader election. - **postgresql**: - **use\_pg\_rewind**:whether or not to use pg_rewind - **use\_slots**: whether or not to use replication_slots. Must be False for PostgreSQL 9.3. You should comment out max_replication_slots before it becomes ineligible for leader status. - **recovery\_conf**: additional configuration settings written to recovery.conf when configuring follower. - **parameters**: list of configuration settings for Postgres. Many of these are required for replication to work. - **initdb**: List options to be passed on to initdb. - **- data-checksums**: Must be enabled when pg_rewind is needed on 9.3. - **- encoding: UTF8**: default encoding for new databases. - **- locale: UTF8**: default locale for new databases. - **pg\_hba**: list of lines that you should add to pg\_hba.conf. - **- host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5**. - **- host replication replicator 127.0.0.1/32 md5**: A line like this is required for replication. - **users**: Some additional users users which needs to be created after initializing new cluster - **admin**: the name of user - **password: zalando**: - **options**: list of options for CREATE USER statement - **- createrole** - **- createdb** Consul ------ - **host**: the host:port for the Consul endpoint. Etcd ---- - **host**: the host:port for the etcd endpoint. Exhibitor --------- - **hosts**: initial list of Exhibitor (ZooKeeper) nodes in format: ['host1', 'host2', 'etc...' ]. This list updates automatically whenever the Exhibitor (ZooKeeper) cluster topology changes. - **poll\_interval**: how often the list of ZooKeeper and Exhibitor nodes should be updated from Exhibitor - **port**: Exhibitor port. PostgreSQL ---------- - **authentication**: - **superuser**: - **username**: name for the superuser, set during initialization (initdb) and later used by Patroni to connect to the postgres. - **password**: password for the superuser, set during initialization (initdb). - **replication**: - **username**: replication username; user will be created during initialization. - **password**: replication password; user will be created during initialization. - **callbacks**: callback scripts to run on certain actions. Patroni will pass the action, role and cluster name. (See scripts/aws.py as an example of how to write them.) - **on\_reload**: run this script when configuration reload is triggered. - **on\_restart**: run this script when the cluster restarts. - **on\_role\_change**: run this script when the cluster is being promoted or demoted. - **on\_start**: run this script when the cluster starts. - **on\_stop**: run this script when the cluster stops. - **connect\_address**: IP address + port through which Postgres is accessible from other nodes and applications. - **create\_replica\_methods**: an ordered list of the create methods for turning a Patroni node into a new replica. "basebackup" is the default method; other methods are assumed to refer to scripts, each of which is configured as its own config item. - **data\_dir**: file path to initialize and store Postgres data files. - **listen**: IP address + port that Postgres listens to; must be accessible from other nodes in the cluster, if you're using streaming replication. Multiple comma-separated addresses are permitted, as long as the port component is appended after to the last one with a colon, i.e. ``listen: 127.0.0.1,127.0.0.2:5432``. Patroni will use the first address from this list to establish local connections to the PostgreSQL node. - **recovery\_conf**: additional configuration settings written to recovery.conf when configuring follower. - **parameters**: list of configuration settings for Postgres. Many of these are required for replication to work. - **replica\_method** for each create_replica_method other than basebackup, you would add a configuration section of the same name. At a minimum, this should include "command" with a full path to the actual script to be executed. Other configuration parameters will be passed along to the script in the form "parameter=value". REST API -------- - **connect\_address**: IP address and port through which restapi is accessible. - **listen**: IP address and port that Patroni will listen to, to provide health-check information for HAProxy. - **Optional**: - **auth**: 'username:password' to protect dangerous REST API endpoints. - **certfile**: Specifies a file with the certificate in the PEM format. If the certfile is not specified or is left empty, the API server will work without SSL. - **keyfile**: Specifies a file with the secret key in the PEM format. ZooKeeper ---------- - **hosts**: list of ZooKeeper cluster members in format: ['host1:port1', 'host2:port2', 'etc...'].
