Home Assistant PostgreSQL addon

🔔 Note this project is looking for a new maintainer: matt-FFFFFF/hassio-addon-teslamate#124

PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system with over 30 years of active development that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance.

This addon is part of my Home Assistant addon repo - see link for instructions on how to add to Home Assistant.

Version

This addon uses version 12.5 of PostgreSQL. It is based on the official Docker Hub build on Github. This image uses the Home Assistant base image, rather than the native Alpine image used in the official image.

Configuration

Set the database name, username and password in the Configuration tab of the addon before starting it for the first time:

username: username
password: password
database: databasename

Connecting to the DB

To connect your application to the database, specify the server name as: 29b65938-postgres (this is correct if you have installed it from my addon repo). The port number is the default of 5432.
