You should use pg_logical_slot_peek_changes or pg_logical_slot_get_changes to grab changes from a replication slot using psql. If you are looking at something at a lower level, have a look at pg_recvlogical as an example of logical change receiver. It is a good start point as well if your goal is to implement your own receiver. In any case, the documentation provides some examples: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/logicaldecoding-example.html -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
