postgresql_extension 'postgres adminpack' do
|
||
database 'postgres'
|
||
extension 'adminpack'
|
||
end
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### postgresql_access
|
||
|
||
This resource uses the accumulator pattern to build up the `pg_hba.conf` file via chef resources instead of piling on a mountain of chef attributes to make this cookbook more reusable. It directly mirrors the configuration options of the postgres hba file in the resource and by default notifies the server with a reload to avoid a full restart, causing a potential outage of service. To revoke access, simply remove the resource and the access change won't be computed into the final `pg_hba.conf`
|
||
|
||
#### Actions
|
||
|
||
- `grant` - (default) Creates an access line inside of `pg_hba.conf`
|
||
|
||
#### Properties
|
||
|
||
Name | Types | Description | Default | Required?
|
||
--------------- | ------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- | ---------
|
||
`name` | String | Name of the access resource, this is left as a comment inside the `pg_hba` config | Resource name | yes
|
||
`source` | String | The cookbook template filename if you want to use your own custom template | 'pg_hba.conf.erb' | yes
|
||
`cookbook` | String | The cookbook to look in for the template source | 'postgresql' | yes
|
||
`comment` | String | A comment to leave above the entry in `pg_hba` | nil | no
|
||
`access_type` | String | The type of access, e.g. local or host | 'local' | yes
|
||
`access_db` | String | The database to access. Can use 'all' for all databases | 'all' | yes
|
||
`access_user` | String | The user accessing the database. Can use 'all' for any user | 'all' | yes
|
||
`access_addr` | String | The address(es) allowed access. Can be nil if method ident is used since it is local then | nil | no
|
||
`access_method` | String | Authentication method to use | 'ident' | yes
|
||
|
||
#### Examples
|
||
|
||
To grant access to the PostgreSQL user with ident authentication:
|
||
|
||
```ruby
|
||
postgresql_access 'local_postgres_superuser' do
|
||
comment 'Local postgres superuser access'
|
||
access_type 'local'
|
||
access_db 'all'
|
||
access_user 'postgres'
|
||
access_addr nil
|
||
access_method 'ident'
|
||
end
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This generates the following line in the `pg_hba.conf`:
|
||
|
||
```config
|
||
# Local postgres superuser access
|
||
local all postgres ident
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Note**: The template by default generates a local access for Unix domain sockets only to support running the SQL execute resources. In Postgres version 9.1 and higher, the method is 'peer' instead of 'ident' which is identical. It looks like this:
|
||
|
||
```config
|
||
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
|
||
local all all peer
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### postgresql_ident
|
||
|
||
This resource generate `pg_ident.conf` configuration file to manage user mapping between system and PostgreSQL users.
|
||
|
||
#### Actions
|
||
|
||

|
||

|
||
`cookbook` | String | The cookbook to look in for the template source | 'postgresql' | no
|
||
`comment` | String, nil | A comment to leave above the entry in `pg_ident` | nil | no
|
||
`system_user` | String | System user or regexp used for the mapping | None | yes
|
||
`pg_user` | String | Pg user or regexp used for the mapping | None | yes
|
||
|
||
#### Examples
|
||
|
||
Creates a `mymapping` mapping that map `john` system user to `user1` PostgreSQL user:
|
||
|
||
```ruby
|
||
postgresql_ident 'Map john to user1' do
|
||
comment 'John Mapping'
|
||
mapname 'mymapping'
|
||
system_user 'john'
|
||
pg_user 'user1'
|
||
end
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This generates the following line in the `pg_ident.conf`:
|
||
|
||
```config
|
||
# MAPNAME SYSTEM-USERNAME PG-USERNAME
|
||
|
||
# John Mapping
|
||
mymapping john user1
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To grant access to the foo user with password authentication:
|
||
|
||
```ruby
|
||
postgresql_access 'local_foo_user' do
|
||
comment 'Foo user access'
|
||
access_type 'host'
|
||
access_db 'all'
|
||
access_user 'foo'
|
||
access_addr '127.0.0.1/32'
|
||
access_method 'md5'
|
||
end
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This generates the following line in the `pg_hba.conf`:
|
||
|
||
```config
|
||
# Local postgres superuser access
|
||

## Usage
|
||
|
||
To install and configure your PostgreSQL instance you need to create your own cookbook and call needed resources with your own parameters.
|
||
|
||
More examples can be found in `test/cookbooks/test/recipes`
|
||
|
||
## Example Usage
|
||
|
||
```ruby
|
||
# cookbooks/my_postgresql/recipes/default.rb
|
||
|
||
postgresql_client_install 'PostgreSQL Client' do
|
||
setup_repo false
|
||
version '10.6'
|
||
end
|
||
|
||
postgresql_server_install 'PostgreSQL Server' do
|
||
version '10.6'
|
||
setup_repo false
|
||
password 'P0stgresP4ssword'
|
||
end
|
||
|
||
postgresql_server_conf 'PostgreSQL Config' do
|
||
notifies :reload, 'service[postgresql]'
|
||
end
