A PostgreSQL database Dockerfile based on phusion/baseimage.

⁠Quickstart

This image is available as a trusted build on the docker index. The easiest way to get it on your server is using docker pull:

.. code-block:: bash

$ docker pull swcc/docker-postgresql

Alternatively, you can clone this repository and build the image yourself:

.. code-block:: bash

$ docker build -t docker-postgresql .

⁠Using this image

Launch a container with this image (bind postgres port anywhere you want e.g. 49999):

.. code-block:: bash

$ docker run -p 127.0.0.1:49999:5432 swcc/docker-postgresql

Once you have started a container from this image, you can access it via:

.. code-block:: bash

# Use your container's name or id
$ docker exec -ti <container-name-or-id> su postgres -c 'psql'

Or can connect to the PostgreSQL database directly if you have the PostgreSQL client installed:

.. code-block:: bash

# Use your container's host and port
$ psql -U postgres -h 127.0.0.1 -p 49999
