Setup

Add your database.

sudo pghero config:set DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:password@hostname:5432/dbname

And optional authentication.

sudo pghero config:set PGHERO_USERNAME=link
sudo pghero config:set PGHERO_PASSWORD=hyrule

Start the server

sudo pghero config:set PORT=3001
sudo pghero config:set RAILS_LOG_TO_STDOUT=disabled
sudo pghero scale web=1

Confirm it’s running with:

curl -v http://localhost:3001/

To open to the outside world, add a proxy. Here’s how to do it with Nginx on Ubuntu.

sudo apt-get install -y nginx
cat | sudo tee /etc/nginx/sites-available/default <<EOF
server {
  listen          80;
  server_name     "";
  location / {
    proxy_pass    http://localhost:3001;
  }
}
EOF
sudo service nginx restart

Management

sudo service pghero status
sudo service pghero start
sudo service pghero stop
sudo service pghero restart

Query Stats

Query stats can be enabled from the dashboard. If you run into issues, view the guide.

Historical Query Stats

To track query stats over time, create a table to store them.

CREATE TABLE "pghero_query_stats" (
  "id" serial primary key,
  "database" text,
  "user" text,
  "query" text,
  "query_hash" bigint,
  "total_time" float,
  "calls" bigint,
  "captured_at" timestamp
);
CREATE INDEX ON "pghero_query_stats" ("database", "captured_at");

This table can be in the current database or another database. If another database, run:

sudo pghero config:set PGHERO_STATS_DATABASE_URL=...

Schedule the task below to run every 5 minutes.

sudo pghero run rake pghero:capture_query_stats

After this, a time range slider will appear on the Queries tab.

Historical Space Stats

To track space stats over time, create a table to store them.

CREATE TABLE "pghero_space_stats" (
  "id" serial primary key,
  "database" text,
  "schema" text,
  "relation" text,
  "size" bigint,
  "captured_at" timestamp
);
CREATE INDEX ON "pghero_space_stats" ("database", "captured_at");

Schedule the task below to run once a day.

sudo pghero run rake pghero:capture_space_stats

System Stats

CPU usage is available for Amazon RDS. Add these variables to your environment:

sudo pghero config:set PGHERO_ACCESS_KEY_ID=accesskey123
sudo pghero config:set PGHERO_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=secret123
sudo pghero config:set PGHERO_DB_INSTANCE_IDENTIFIER=epona

Multiple Databases

Create a pghero.yml with:

databases:
  primary:
    url: postgres://...
  replica:
    url: postgres://...

And run:

cat pghero.yml | sudo pghero run sh -c "cat > config/pghero.yml"
sudo service pghero restart
