pgredis-bun-listen

Bun-native PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY client used by pgredis. It is published as a separate package so Bun projects can use it directly without installing the full pgredis toolkit.

It connects through Bun.connect() and implements the PostgreSQL wire protocol for notification workloads. It supports TLS negotiation, MD5, cleartext, and SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication.

Install

bun add pgredis-bun-listen

Usage

import { createPgListener } from "pgredis-bun-listen";

  channels: ["events"],
  onNotify(channel, payload) {
    console.log(channel, payload);
  }
});

await listener.notify("events", JSON.stringify({ type: "ready" }));

listener.close();
