⚡ Benchmarks: #NpgsqlRest is 6.1x faster than #PostgREST at 100 concurrent users — AOT-compiled native binaries, zero runtime dependencies & instant startup time

🔧 Install via npm, Docker, direct download or as a #dotnet library — requires #PostgreSQL >= 13 — no runtime dependencies for the native executable builds

📝 Declarative config via SQL comment annotations — define routes, auth rules & caching directly in your DB. One source of truth, zero drift between logic and config.

I run #PostgREST on CloudRun, and I'm reasonably happy with it. It requires a modicum amount of setup. Would that make an interesting blog post?

Implementing this in as technically simple a manner as is possible can be done using postgREST, on top of postgres and nginx.

PostgREST automatically serves a full OpenAPI description on the root path. This provides a list of all endpoints (tables, foreign tables, views, functions), along with supported HTTP verbs and example payloads. For extra customization, the OpenAPI output contains a “description” field for every ...

Today's article is about PostgREST, a tool to expose Postgres over HTTP. I discuss the role for such tools and explain some integration patterns based on different use-cases.

Lucas DiCioccio's Blog - Using PostgREST for development, troubleshooting, and data endpoint

PostgREST is a relatively widely adopted solution for exposing a PostgreSQL database via an HTTP interface. We'll explore the benefits of considering PostgREST for your development and production environments.

It's been so many months in the making but I've finally reached a point at which I'm ok to say I've upgraded #postgrest -table, https://dicioccio.fr/postgrest-table.html . If you do not know, PostgREST is a way to provide a #REST API on top of #PostgreSQL with little effort. I think it's always good in read-only as (a) an addition to business-code-carrying APIs (e.g., provide a 'data' api to your users easily) (b) local debugging/troubleshooting. With my tool you also get low-effort dashboards for free.

Lucas DiCioccio's Blog - PostgREST Table: simplifying Postgres exploration

Postgrest-Table is a powerful, browser-based exploration and dashboard tool that simplifies data analysis and visualization. By eliminating server-side dependencies and minimizing setup requirements, it's ideal for development, troubleshooting, and creating custom dashboards. With its auto-refresh feature, AJAX capabilities, customizable knobs, and graphing capabilities, Postgrest-Table augments the usefulness of your Postgres database without taking much space in your life.

Trying out #postgrest with #csharp and the #supabase client. This might be a nice "quick and easy" way to spin up demo APIs for workshops or tutorials around #aspnetcore.

All runs locally off of #postgres #database. Pretty neat stuff for #dotnet devs.

PostgREST: Revolutionizing Web Development with Instant APIs

PostgREST has been around for a long time, but many web developers still haven't discovered how it can simplify their workflow.

Today, I wrote on how to combine #PostgreSQL , #PostgREST and #ApacheAPISIX to expose a developer-friendly #RESTAPI.

https://blog.frankel.ch/advanced-url-rewrite-apisix/

Advanced URL rewriting with Apache APISIX

I spoke at Swiss PgDay in Switzerland in late June. The talk was about how to create a no-code API with the famous PostgreSQL database, the related PostgREST, and Apache APISIX, of course. I already wrote about the idea in a previous post. However, I wanted to improve it, if only slightly. PostgREST offers a powerful SELECT mechanism. To list all entities with a column equal to a value, you need the following command: curl /products?id=eq.1 id is the columneq.1 corresponds to the WHERE cla

I always enjoy seeing #Postgrest on #HN! https://postgrest.org/en/stable/how-tos/providing-html-content-using-htmx.html

Postgrest is of course written in #Haskell. But what I didn't know was that #Supabase is based on Postgrest, and they employ the lead developer of postgrest to work on it fulltime, which means Supabase is also based on Haskell!
