Postgres

Tag 4: the client opens its half of a database connection the server announced, quoting the connection id; the server sends everything the container’s driver wrote, and the channel response finish when the driver’s socket ends.

The client opens this channel as its half of a database connection the server announced on a postgres channel of its own, quoting the connection id. The server sends on it everything the container’s driver writes.

  • The request. The tag byte 4 followed by the connection id, four bytes. Request states its form.
  • The response. The bytes the driver wrote, as channel responses, and the channel response finish when the driver’s socket ends. Response states the sequence.
  • Nothing is lost. The server holds what the driver wrote from the moment it announced the connection, and sends it first, in order, when this channel opens.
  • One half per connection. A connection id the server did not announce, and an id whose half was already opened, are answered by a channel response finish that no channel response precedes.
