Hucpa

A JRuby wrapper to HikariCP - "zero-overhead" production ready JDBC connection pool. This is / will be a part of a bigger effort, like a dedicated library to use SQL and / or ActiveRecord integration.

Please note the project support only JRuby (tested with 9.1.7.0+) on Java 8.

The public API is subject to change before version 1.0.0.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "hucpa"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install hucpa

Usage

Install the database driver, for PostgreSQL:

gem "jdbc-postgres"

Load the the database driver if needed, for PostgreSQL:

require "jdbc/postgres"
Jdbc::Postgres.load_driver

Configure the connection pool:

# Using the adapter option
options = {
  adapter: :postgresql,
  database_name: "hucpa",
  password: "hucpa",
  server_name: "postgres",
  username: "hucpa"
}

# Using the jdbc_url option
options = {
  jdbc_url: "jdbc:postgresql://postgres/hucpa",
  password: "hucpa",
  username: "hucpa"
}

connection_pool = Hucpa::ConnectionPool.new(options)

Use the connection pool with the with_connection API:

answer = connection_pool.with_connection do |connection|
  result_set =
    connection
      .create_statement
      .execute_query("SELECT 42 AS answer")

  result_set.next and result_set.get_int("answer")
end

answer
=> 42

Or use the connection pool with the "classic" API:

datasource = connection_pool.open

# Explicitly obtain the DB connection
connection = datasource.connection

result_set =
  connection
    .create_statement
    .execute_query("SELECT 42 AS answer")

answer = result_set.next and result_set.get_int("answer")

# Explicitly release the DB connection
connection.close

answer
=> 42

Close the connection pool:

connection_pool.close
