Pgnudge – tell your app which Postgres tables just changed
SMRTR summary
pgnudge is a lightweight async Python library that watches PostgreSQL for table changes and notifies your app instantly , without installing triggers, functions, or persistent slots in the database. It speaks the PostgreSQL replication protocol directly, requires no database driver beyond scramp, and leaves zero footprint after disconnect. It's designed for dashboards and read models that need to know when to refetch, not what changed.
