labianchin/postgresql repository overview

⁠Postgresql server inside docker

Dockerfile with postgresql-9.3 server

⁠How to

This repository provides a postgresql-9.3 server. It is important to suply a volume for postgresql data. If the data dir is empty, when starting the container, it will create the database cluster, a user and a database. Creating a database might take a while (~ 5 seconds).

When running check docker logs to see if the runit process (which starts postgresql database) has already started.

⁠Build

docker build -t labianchin/postgresql .

⁠Run

docker run -it -v /tmp/volumes/data:/data -v /tmp/volumes/log:/var/log --name thesql -p 5432:5432 -d labianchin/postgresql
PG_PASSWORD=docker psql -h localhost -U docker docker

⁠TODO

• Add to docker index
• Improve documentation
• Improve postgresql configuration (maybe not using many RUN commands)
• Stress test, putting many data in the database
