Hi all, The first part of src/backend/replication/README lists all the APIs usable for a WAL receiver, but these have aged and lost track of most changes that happened over the years. Four functions are listed in the README, with incorrect signatures and many others are missing: - walrcv_connect() - walrcv_receive() - walrcv_send() - walrcv_disconnect()
I think that we should clean up that. And as it seems to me that nobody really remembers to update this README, I would suggest to update the first section of the README to refer to walreceiver.h for details about each function, then move the existing API descriptions from the README to walreceiver.h (while fixing the incomplete descriptions of course). This way, if a new function is added or if an existing function is changed, it is going to be hard to miss an update of the function descriptions. Any thoughts? -- Michael
