   The archive callbacks define the actual archiving behavior of the module.
   The server will call them as required to process each individual WAL file.
  </p><div class="sect2" id="ARCHIVE-MODULE-STARTUP"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">51.2.1. Startup Callback <a href="#ARCHIVE-MODULE-STARTUP" class="id_link">#</a></h3></div></div></div><p>
    The <code class="function">startup_cb</code> callback is called shortly after the
    module is loaded.  This callback can be used to perform any additional
    initialization required.  If the archive module has any state, it can use
    <code class="structfield">state-&gt;private_data</code> to store it.

</p><pre class="programlisting">
typedef void (*ArchiveStartupCB) (ArchiveModuleState *state);
</pre><p>
   </p></div><div class="sect2" id="ARCHIVE-MODULE-CHECK"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">51.2.2. Check Callback <a href="#ARCHIVE-MODULE-CHECK" class="id_link">#</a></h3></div></div></div><p>
    The <code class="function">check_configured_cb</code> callback is called to determine
    whether the module is fully configured and ready to accept WAL files (e.g.,
    its configuration parameters are set to valid values).  If no
    <code class="function">check_configured_cb</code> is defined, the server always
    assumes the module is configured.

</p><pre class="programlisting">
typedef bool (*ArchiveCheckConfiguredCB) (ArchiveModuleState *state);
</pre><p>

    If <code class="literal">true</code> is returned, the server will proceed with
    archiving the file by calling the <code class="function">archive_file_cb</code>
    callback.  If <code class="literal">false</code> is returned, archiving will not
    proceed, and the archiver will emit the following message to the server log:
</p><pre class="screen">
WARNING:  archive_mode enabled, yet archiving is not configured
</pre><p>
    In the latter case, the server will periodically call this function, and
    archiving will proceed only when it returns <code class="literal">true</code>.
   </p></div><div class="sect2" id="ARCHIVE-MODULE-ARCHIVE"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">51.2.3. Archive Callback <a href="#ARCHIVE-MODULE-ARCHIVE" class="id_link">#</a></h3></div></div></div><p>
    The <code class="function">archive_file_cb</code> callback is called to archive a
    single WAL file.

</p><pre class="programlisting">
typedef bool (*ArchiveFileCB) (ArchiveModuleState *state, const char *file, const char *path);
</pre><p>

    If <code class="literal">true</code> is returned, the server proceeds as if the file
    was successfully archived, which may include recycling or removing the
    original WAL file.  If <code class="literal">false</code> is returned, the server will
    keep the original WAL file and retry archiving later.
    <em class="replaceable"><code>file</code></em> will contain just the file name of the WAL
    file to archive, while <em class="replaceable"><code>path</code></em> contains the full
    path of the WAL file (including the file name).
   </p></div><div class="sect2" id="ARCHIVE-MODULE-SHUTDOWN"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">51.2.4. Shutdown Callback <a href="#ARCHIVE-MODULE-SHUTDOWN" class="id_link">#</a></h3></div></div></div><p>
    The <code class="function">shutdown_cb</code> callback is called when the archiver
    process exits (e.g., after an error) or the value of
    <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-wal.html#GUC-ARCHIVE-LIBRARY">archive_library</a> changes.  If no
    <code class="function">shutdown_cb</code> is defined, no special action is taken in
    these situations.  If the archive module has any state, this callback should
    free it to avoid leaks.
