- #1933, #2109, Add a minimal health check endpoint - @steve-chavez
- For enabling this, the
admin-server-port
config must be set explictly - A
<host>:<admin_server_port>/live
endpoint is available for checking if postgrest is running on its port/socket. 200 OK = alive, 503 = dead. - A
<host>:<admin_server_port>/ready
endpoint is available for checking a correct internal state(the database connection plus the schema cache). 200 OK = ready, 503 = not ready.
- For enabling this, the

- #2268, Allow returning XML from single-column queries - @fjf2002
- #2300, RPC POST for function w/single unnamed XML param #2300 - @fjf2002
- #1564, Allow geojson output by specifying the
Accept: application/geo+json
media type - @steve-chavez- Requires postgis >= 3.0
- Works for GET, RPC, POST/PATCH/DELETE with
Prefer: return=representation
. - Resource embedding works and the embedded rows will go into the
properties
key - In case of multiple geometries in the same table, you can choose which one will go into the
geometry
key with the usual?select
query parameter.
- #1082, Add security definitions to the OpenAPI output - @laurenceisla
- #2378, Support http OPTIONS method on RPC and root path - @steve-chavez
- #2354, Allow getting the EXPLAIN plan of a request by using the
Accept: application/vnd.pgrst.plan
header - @steve-chavez- Only allowed if the
db-plan-enabled
config is set to true - Can generate the plan for different media types using the
for
parameter:Accept: application/vnd.pgrst.plan; for="application/vnd.pgrst.object"
- Different options for the plan can be used with the
options
parameter:Accept: application/vnd.pgrst.plan; options=analyze|verbose|settings|buffers|wal
- The plan can be obtained in text or json by using different media type suffixes:
Accept: application/vnd.pgrst.plan+text
andAccept: application/vnd.pgrst.plan+json
.
- Only allowed if the
- #2144, Support computed relationships which allow extending and overriding relationships for resource embedding - @steve-chavez, @wolfgangwalther

- #2070, Restrict generated many-to-many relationships - @steve-chavez

- #2278, Allow casting to types with underscores and numbers(e.g.
select=oid_array::_int4
) - @steve-chavez - #2277, #2238, #1643, Prevent views from breaking one-to-many/many-to-one embeds when using column or FK as target - @steve-chavez
- When using a column or FK as target for embedding(
/tbl?select=*,col-or-fk(*)
), only tables are now detected and views are not. - You can still use a column or an inferred FK on a view to embed a table(
/view?select=*,col-or-fk(*)
)
- When using a column or FK as target for embedding(
- #2317, Increase the
db-pool-timeout
to 1 hour to prevent frequent high connection latency - @steve-chavez - #2341, The search path now correctly identifies schemas with uppercase and special characters in their names (regression) - @laurenceisla

limit=0
in the request query to return an empty array - @gautam1168, @laurenceisla - #2401, Ensure database connections can't outlive SIGUSR1 - @robx
- #2001, Return 204 No Content without Content-Type for RPCs returning VOID - @wolfgangwalther
- Previously, those RPCs would return "null" as a body with Content-Type: application/json.
- #2156,
limit/offset
now limits the affected rows on UPDATE/DELETE - @steve-chavez- Previously,
limit/offset
only limited the returned rows but not the actual updated rows
- Previously,
- #2155,
max-rows
is no longer applied on POST/PATCH/PUT/DELETE returned rows - @steve-chavez- This was misleading because the affected rows were not really affected by
max-rows
, only the returned rows were limited
- This was misleading because the affected rows were not really affected by
- #2070, Restrict generated many-to-many relationships - @steve-chavez
- A primary key that contains the foreign key columns is now needed for generating many-to-many relationships.
- #2277, Views now are not detected when embedding using the column or FK as target (
/view?select=*,column(*)
) - @steve-chavez- This embedding form was easily made ambiguous whenever a new view was added.
- You can use computed relationships to keep this embedding form working
- #2312, Using
Prefer: return=representation
no longer returns aLocation
header - @laurenceisla - #1984, For the cases where one to one relationships are detected, json objects will be returned instead of json arrays of length 1

Content-Type
headers forGET
requests when calling RPCs. - @laurenceisla- Previously,
GET
without parameters, but withContent-Type: text/plain
orContent-Type: application/octet-stream
would fail with404 Not Found
, even if a function without arguments was available.
- Previously,
- #2239, Fix misleading disambiguation error where the content of the
relationship
key looks like valid syntax - @laurenceisla - #2294, Disable parallel GC for better performance on higher core CPUs - @steve-chavez

?col=in.("Double\"Quote")
,?col=in.("Back\\slash")
- @steve-chavez - #1075, Allow filtering top-level resource based on embedded resources filters. This is enabled by adding
!inner
to the embedded resource, e.g./projects?select=*,clients!inner(*)&clients.id=eq.12
- @steve-chavez, @Iced-Sun - #1857, Make GUC names for headers, cookies and jwt claims compatible with PostgreSQL v14 - @laurenceisla, @robertsosinski
- Getting the value for a header GUC on PostgreSQL 14 is done using
current_setting('request.headers')::json->>'name-of-header'
and in a similar way forrequest.cookies
andrequest.jwt.claims
- PostgreSQL versions below 14 can opt in to the new JSON GUCs by setting the
db-use-legacy-gucs
config option to false (true by default)
- Getting the value for a header GUC on PostgreSQL 14 is done using

- #1875, Fix Location headers in headers only representation for null PK inserts on views - @laurenceisla
- #1522, #1528, #1535, Docker images are now built from scratch based on a the static PostgREST executable (#1494) and with Nix instead of a
Dockerfile
. This reduces the compressed image size from over 30mb to about 4mb - @monacoremo - #1461, Location header for POST request is only included when PK is available on the table - @wolfgangwalther
- #1560, Volatile RPC called with GET now returns 405 Method not Allowed instead of 500 - @wolfgangwalther

returns composite_type
no longer return a single object array by default, only functions withreturns setof composite_type
return an array of objects - @wolfgangwalther - #1604, Change the default logging level to
log-level=error
. Only requests with a status greater or equal than 500 will be logged. If you wish to go back to the previous behaviour and log all the requests, uselog-level=info
- @steve-chavez- Because currently there's no buffering for logging, defaulting to the
error
level(minimum logging) increases throughput by around 15% for simple GET queries(no embedding, with filters applied).
- Because currently there's no buffering for logging, defaulting to the
- #1617, Dropped support for PostgreSQL 9.4 - @wolfgangwalther

- The configuration (e.g.
postgrest.conf
) now accepts arbitrary settings that will be passed through as session-local database settings. This can be used to pass in secret keys directly as strings, or via OS environment variables. For instance:app.settings.jwt_secret = "$(MYAPP_JWT_SECRET)"
will takeMYAPP_JWT_SECRET
from the environment and make it available to postgresql functions ascurrent_setting('app.settings.jwt_secret')
. Onlyapp.settings.*
