Learn how to set up an external Postgres database for use with C4D.
If you'd like to use an external database with your Coder for Docker deployment, you must:
Disable the embedded database by setting the DB_EMBEDDED
environment
variable (see the next code snippet for an example)
Provide the connection information to the external PostgreSQL database:
docker run --rm -it -p 7080:7080 \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-v ~/.coder:/var/run/coder \
# Disable using the embedded DB
-e DB_EMBEDDED="" \
# Change these values to match those for your database
-e DB_HOST=127.0.0.1 \
-e DB_PORT=5432 \
-e DB_USER=postgres \
-e DB_PASSWORD="" \
-e DB_NAME=postgres \
-e DB_SSL_MODE=disable \
codercom/coder:1.28.2
Coder supports client TLS certificates using DB_SSL_MODE=verify-full
. Ensure
that you mount the certs into the container (and add the flag
-v <local_certs>:/certs
). Then, specify the certificate path using environment
variables:
Flag/environment variable | Description |
---|---|
-e DB_CERT=/certs/client.crt | The path to the client cert signed by the CA |
-e DB_KEY=/certs/client.key | The path to the client secret |
-e DB_ROOT_CERT=/certs/myCA.crt | The path to the trusted CA cert |
