Show HN: PLJS – JavaScript for Postgres

11 points

a year ago

PLJS is a new, modern JavaScript trusted language extension, bundling QuickJS, a small and fast JavaScript runtime with Postgres, providing fast type conversion between Postgres and JavaScript, fast execution, and a very light footprint.

Here are bencharks that show how it compares to PLV8: https://github.com/plv8/pljs/blob/main/docs/BENCHMARKS.md

This is the first step toward a truly light-weight, fast, and extensible JavaScript runtime embedded inside of Postgres. The initial roadmap has been published at https://github.com/plv8/pljs/blob/main/docs/ROADMAP.md
