Dockerfile to build PostgreSQL on CentOS 7

⁠Setup

To build the image

# docker build --rm -t <yourname>/zabbix-db-postgresql .

⁠Launching PostgreSQL

⁠Quick Start (not recommended for production use)

docker run --name=postgresql -d <yourname>/zabbix-db-postgresql

To connect to the container as the administrative postgres user:

docker run -it --rm --volumes-from=postgresql <yourname>/zabbix-db-postgresql sudo -u
postgres -H psql

⁠Creating a database at launch

You can create a postgresql superuser at launch by specifying DB_USER and DB_PASS variables. You may also create a database by using DB_NAME.

docker run --name postgresql -d \
-e 'DB_USER=username' \
-e 'DB_PASS=ridiculously-complex_password1' \
-e 'DB_NAME=my_database' \
<yourname>/zabbix-db-postgresql

When you want to use a data container run the following command:

docker run --name postgresql -d \
--volumes-from pgdata \
-e 'DB_USER=username' \
-e 'DB_PASS=ridiculously-complex_password1' \
-e 'DB_NAME=my_database' \
<yourname>/zabbix-db-postgresql

NOTE: best use my prepared data container: blackcobra1973/docker-postgresql-data

To connect to your database with your newly created user:

psql -U username -h $(docker inspect --format {{.NetworkSettings.IPAddress}} postgresql)
