Hi everyone. I'm using tap-postgres with LOG_BASED replication method. I've successfully setup the logical replication and now able to capture insert, update, and deletes on my database. I'm running into an issue that my replication slot cannot be used by parallel extractions from the database. Is there a way to set a different replication slot name for each extractor other than tappostgres?

I think we'd need a PR, to us it made a lot of sense to just have one process that'd capture them all but 🤷 a quick fix would be a config value where you could override the slot name

This is definitely a need since postgres does not allow the same replication slot for multiple databases on the same server/cluster. therefore, in our case where we have multiple databases in the same server, we're not able to use the replication slot name tappostgres across multiple databases. Hence, we can only do logical replication for one database

Do give the issue a 👍 to help us prioritize simple smile
