[question] use external postgres server in production

[ygol]

Hello,

Where/how may I configure the use of an external database but only for production?
thank you

[yajo]

Just use this option. Then, later, configure the prod.yaml environment according to your needs:

doodba-copier-template/copier.yml

Line 291 in dbaecbd

I will use an external PostgreSQL server: null

Tnx for feedback Yajo but using this option generate errors:

• in invoke img-pull:
  Pulling db ... error

• in invoke resetdb and invoke start:

ERROR: manifest for tecnativa/postgres-autoconf:None-alpine not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown
Pulling db (tecnativa/postgres-autoconf:None-alpine)...
ERROR: manifest for tecnativa/postgres-autoconf:None-alpine not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

This bug has been fixed in #150, and later in #159

@ygol How did you setup the communication with an external postgres server?
Is it also possible in devel environment?

I did not configure it.
You can add the following in devel.yaml to allow connecting to "postgres-external-address"

proxy_postgres-external-address:
    image: ghcr.io/tecnativa/docker-whitelist:latest
    networks:
      default:
        aliases:
          - postgres-external-address
      public:
    environment:
      TARGET: postgres-external-address
