[FEATURE] PostgreSQL Database Adapter Implementation #33

@HaxoLabs

Description

@HaxoLabs

Feature Summary

Implement a PostgreSQL adapter that provides SQL database access through DBX's unified API, enabling relational database operations alongside Redis and MDBX.

Motivation

PostgreSQL support expands DBX into relational database scenarios, making it a true polyglot database proxy. This enables complex queries, ACID transactions, and structured data management.

Detailed Description

Create a PostgreSQL adapter that includes:

  • Connection pooling with deadpool-postgres
  • SQL query execution through DBX API
  • Table management operations
  • Transaction support
  • Index management
  • Integration with DBX authentication and routing
  • Query result caching

Proposed Solution

  1. Adapter Structure: Create crates/adapter/postgres/
  2. Connection Pool: Use deadpool-postgres for connection management
  3. Query Interface: Implement SQL query execution endpoints
  4. ORM Integration: Consider sqlx for type-safe queries
  5. Caching: Implement query result caching

Alternative Solutions

  • Generic SQL adapter supporting multiple databases
  • MySQL adapter instead of PostgreSQL
  • NoSQL document interface over PostgreSQL JSON

Additional Context

PostgreSQL is the most popular open-source relational database and would significantly expand DBX's use cases.

Implementation Notes

  • Use async PostgreSQL client with connection pooling
  • Implement proper SQL injection prevention
  • Support prepared statements
  • Handle PostgreSQL-specific data types
  • Implement query result streaming for large datasets

Acceptance Criteria

  • Complete PostgreSQL adapter in crates/adapter/postgres/
  • Connection pooling with configurable parameters
  • SQL query execution endpoints
  • Table management operations (create, drop, alter)
  • Transaction support (begin, commit, rollback)
  • Index management operations
  • Query result caching with configurable TTL
  • Integration with existing authentication
  • Query parameter binding for security
  • Unit tests with >85% coverage
  • Integration tests with PostgreSQL test database
  • Performance benchmarks
  • Documentation with SQL examples
  • Migration guide from direct PostgreSQL usage

Priority

  • Medium
