Hi, guys!  
I want to completely disallow postgres to write WAL and turn it to read-only instance WAL-compatible with another instance.  
It is guarantied that there will be no write queries to the server, but I need to be sure about WAL.

Is it possible?

Have you considered setting it up as a hot standby, but then not
feeding it a WAL stream?

Looks like what I've looked for.

Creating a temp table is not a read-only operation.
