Synopsis

Start and stop a temporary postgres

Description

tmp-postgres provides functions creating a temporary postgres instance.

By default it will create a temporary directory for the data, a random port for listening and a temporary directory for a UNIX domain socket.

Here is an example using the expection safe with function:

 with $ \db -> bracket (connectPostgreSQL (toConnectionString db)) close $ \conn ->
  execute_ conn "CREATE TABLE foo (id int)"

MacOS and Linux are support. Windows is not.

Requires PostgreSQL 9.3+

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
