  • Soul: A SQLite REST and Realtime Server
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 19 Mar 2024
    Hi, PocketBase author here.

    Keep in mind that PocketBase do a lot more than just executing a raw DB query. We perform data validation, normalization, serialization, enriching, auto fail-retry to handle additional SQLITE_BUSY errors, etc. All of this comes with some cost and will always have an effect when doing microbenchmarks like this.

    The performance would also depend on what version of PocketBase did you try, whether you used CGO or the pure Go driver, etc.

    For a benchmark closer to a "real world" scenarios tested on various servers you can check the results from https://github.com/pocketbase/benchmarks.

    There is definitely room for improvements (I haven't done any detailed profiling yet) but the current performance is "good enough" for the purposes the applications PocketBase is intended for (I've shared some numbers regarding a PocketBase app on production in https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/4254).

    Hope the above helps.

    I wonder if it is inspired by [1], looks very similar including the "realtime" blurb.

  • Ask HN: What two software products should have a kid?
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Feb 2024
    Browsing HN, GitHub and the like we get to see a huge variety of software products and code bases.

    I often see products and think - if this product X, got together with Y, it would be pretty cool - kind of like if they had a kid together.

    Not too literally, but more on the conceptual level - my level of programming is low.

    E.g. Just some....

    - pocketable.io & datasette (+with some more charting) [https://pocketbase.io, https://datasette.io]

  • Ask HN: What development tools are you using for your current project?
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 3 Feb 2024
    I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize i've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things.

    Here are a few tools that i've been using lately that I really enjoy:

    https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted firebase/supabase-like "backend in a box" using golang and sqlite. So far i've been really impressed. I've gone the route of extending the base offering with more go code and am really enjoying the experience.

    https://excalidraw.com/ - An open source whiteboarding tool. Slick to use and after learning some keybinds I've gotten pretty fast at throwing together diagrams to explain things to people on my team. The killer piece though is that the filetype is just json, so I can source control my diagrams. Even better, their "export to png" function has a box to embed the json data _into_ the png, allowing me to slap the diagram in places that only accept images (think confluence) and still be able to change the diagram later if needed. 10/10.

    https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/ - Gitlab's CI/CD toolset is really impressive, and I've gotten really intimate with it's deeper features over the past year. I'd be curious though to hear from someone who's familiar with it vs it's competitors.

    Is there an article somewhere, outside of the Pocketbase docs, presenting that pattern?

    Really hard to find projects related Go and HTMX but I found pocketbase it is based on Go. Interesting and seems promising - https://pocketbase.io/ based on sqllite but great for simple SaaS products
