peeringdb-simplesync - Minimalistic PeeringDB synchronization tool
==================================================================

A simple tool for keeping a local PostgreSQL database up-to-date with PeeringDB.

Requirements
------------

* PostgreSQL 9.5+
* Python 3.6+
* psycopg2 2.7+
* python-requests 2+


Installation
-----

```sh
sudo apt install git python3 python3-requests python3-psycopg2

git clone https://git.2e8.dk/peeringdb-simplesync
cd peeringdb-simplesync

cp config.py.sample config.py
editor config.py # change credentials

createdb pdbtest
psql pdbtest < schema.sql
```

Usage
-----

```sh
./sync.py # initial sync takes about 10 minutes
```

Then try the following query with `psql pdbtest`:

```sql
SELECT
	asn,
	data->>'irr_as_set',
	(data->>'info_prefixes4')::int pfx4,
	(data->>'info_prefixes6')::int pfx6
FROM peeringdb.net ORDER BY asn;
```

Note: if you add an `info_prefixes4` column to the schema,
then it will automatically be used, just like the `asn` column.

Known issues
------------

* Objects are not deleted when they are deleted from PeeringDB.
