Hi Laurenz,
That seems very promising, though I’m not certain how I’d code that in the create foreign server syntax. My testbed is not quire ready right now, so I’ll ask instead of testing.
Is this what you mean:
CREATE SERVER FDW001 FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER POSTGES_FDW
OPTIONS (HOST ‘FOORW, FOORO’, DBNAME ‘FOODB,FOODB’, PORT ‘5432,6432’,
TARGET_SESSION_ATTRS ‘ANY,READ-ONLY’
;

Use the "target_session_attrs" connection parameter.
It can be used to always connect to the primary, and from v14 on
it can also be used to preferably connect to the standby.
Yours,
