sebcworks/postgres repository overview

⁠PostgreSQL 9.4/9.5 Container

⁠Description

Yet another PostgreSQL container.

Tag "latest" equals to tag pg94 (for postgresql 9.4). To use postgresql 9.5, use tag pg95

It is based on the official PostgreSQL container⁠.

This version use the volumes created by the data container sebcworks/postgres-data (https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/sebcworks/postgres-data/⁠) :

• /data/postgresql
• /var/log

I also do not expose the port 5432 as I intend to use the container by linking (the option --link)

⁠Usage

If used with my "postgres-data" container

docker run --name pgdata sebcworks/postgres-data

docker run --name pgdb -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=tobechanged --volumes-from pgdata -d sebcworks/postgres:pg95

docker exec -it pgdb bash
su postgres
psql
ALTER USER postgres WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'toto';

Then it can be linked in an app who needs postgresql: docker run --name myapp --link pgdb:postgres -d username/app
