Pgstream – CDC tool for PostgreSQL with DDL support
Hi HN, pgstream is an open source CLI tool and Go library for Postgres logical replication events. We have some bigger plans with it, but as of now its main "differentiator" is that it includes not only data changes but also DDL changes in the same ordered and consistent stream. We have developed this because in the Xata platform we handle automatic replication from Postgres to Elasticsearch/OpenSearch. Initially schema changes were problematic because they required us intercepting them at the API layer and then apply them to the search engine. But if the replication is slightly delayed…

What it does
Today we’re excited to expand our open source Postgres platform with pgstream, a CDC command line tool and library for PostgreSQL with replication support for DDL changes to any provided output.
In the maker’s words, at launch

Hello HN, I am Sai Srirampur, one of the Co-founders of PeerDB. (https://github.com/PeerDB-io/peerdb). We spent the past 7 months building a solid experience to replicate data from Postgres to data warehouses. Now we're expanding to queues. PeerDB Streams provides a simple and native way to replicate changes as they happen in Postgres to Queues (Kafka, Redpanda, Google PubSub, etc). We use Postgres logical decoding to enable Change Data Capture (CDC). Blog post here: https://blog.peerdb.io/peerdb-streams-simple-native-postgres.... 10-min quickstart here:…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
