Some of our tests were creating a psql event sink and expecting
it to report (or not report) certain kinds of errors. These tests
were ill-founded in a couple of ways:
1. Tests that required the Postgres driver were not loading it.
This led to spurious successes on tests that wanted "some error"
from the sink constructor, but didn't exercise the right path.
2. Tests that wanted a Postgres sink to succeed without a database.
These tests "passed" because they weren't actually establishing a
connection to the database, but if they had would have failed for
the lack of one.
To fix this:
- Load the postgres driver in tests that need it.
- Verify connectivity before reporting successful creation of a PSQL event sink.
- Remove tests that wanted a psql sink without a database, since that case
is already tested elsewhere.
Update the schema and implementation of the Postgres event indexer to improve
certain types of queries against the index. These changes address the use cases
raised by #6843, and are partly inspired by the prototype schema in that issue.
In the old schema, events were flattened, making it difficult to find all the events
associated with a particular block or transaction. In addition, events with no key/value
attributes were entirely lost, since entries were generated only for attributes.
To address these issues, this new schema records blocks, transactions, events,
and attributes in separate tables, and provides views that join these tables to
give a more convenient query surface for block and transaction events.
- All events for a given block can be queried from the `block_events` view.
- All events for a given transaction can be queried from the `tx_events` view.
- Multiple events for the same key can be indexed for both blocks and transactions.
The tests have been reworked, but all of the existing test cases for the old schema
still pass with the new implementation. Various other minor cleanups are included,
ADR-065 is also updated to reflect the updated schema.
Add documentation comments to the psql event sink package, and simplify the
constructor function so that it does not return the SQL database handle. The
handle is needed for testing, so expose that via a separate method on the
concrete type.
Update the tests and existing usage for the change. This change does not affect
the behaviour of the sink, so there are no functional changes, only syntactic
updates.
Closes: #6661
Note: see another error during the events indexing, guess the raw tx size exceeds the limitation?
