Synopsis
Start and stop a temporary postgres for testing
Description

This module provides functions creating a temporary postgres instance on a random port for testing.

result <- start []
case result of
  Left err -> print err
  Right tempDB -> do
    -- Do stuff
    stop tempDB

The are few different methods for starting postgres which provide different methods of dealing with stdout and stderr.

The start methods use a config based on the one used by pg_tmp (http:/ephemeralpg.org), but can be overriden by different values to the first argument of the start functions.

WARNING!! Ubuntu's PostgreSQL installation does not put initdb on the PATH. We need to add it manually. The necessary binaries are in the /usr/lib/postgresql/VERSION/bin/ directory, and should be added to the PATH

echo "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/postgresql/VERSION/bin/" >> /home/ubuntu/.bashrc
