enryold/pgpool2-aws repository overview

⁠docker-pgpool2-aws

Docker image with pgpool2.

⁠Why 'aws'?

In todo-list I will make this image able to pull some info from AWS cli (new replicas, replication problems) and react by reloading pgpool configuration (for example)

⁠Config

• Use this image as base image.
• Create your pgpool configuration (pgpool.conf, pgpool_hba.conf, etc..)
• Create a file named pool_passwd_plain with your dbms username and password.
• If you don't use pool_passwd system, leave it blank.
• Copy your pgpool configuration files into docker folder /usr/local/etc/
• Start image

⁠Remember

• If you use pgpool streaming_replication feature with check_period, remember to set right user and password in your pgpool.conf file

sr_check_user = 'my_user'
                                   # Streaming replication check user
                                   # This is neccessary even if you disable streaming
                                   # replication delay check by sr_check_period = 0
sr_check_password = 'my_password'

⁠Usage

FROM enryold/pgpool2-aws
COPY ./myconfigfolder/* /usr/local/etc/
