Description

A set of LWRPs for interacting with postgres using the CLI.

Dependencies

The cookbook requires the 'psql' client utility for postgres to be installed on the node. However there is no depedence on a cookbook that installs this utlility. One can be found here: https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/postgresql.git

Usage

The cookbook is simply a set of LWRPs that you can use in your own cookbook. A simple example follows.

psql_user "myuser" do
  host node['fqdn']
  port node['postgresql']['config']['port']
  admin_username 'postgres'
  admin_password node['postgresql']['password']['postgres']
  password 'secret'
  grant_create_db false
  grant_superuser false
end

psql_database "mydatabase" do
  host node['fqdn']
  port node['postgresql']['config']['port']
  admin_username 'postgres'
  admin_password node['postgresql']['password']['postgres']
  owner 'myuser'
  template 'template_postgis'
  encoding 'DEFAULT'
  tablespace 'MyTablespace'
  collation 'fr_FR'
  connection_limit -1
end

psql_permission "myuser@mydatabase => all" do
  host node['fqdn']
  port node['postgresql']['config']['port']
  admin_username 'postgres'
  admin_password node['postgresql']['password']['postgres']
  username 'myuser'
  database 'mydatabase'
  permissions ['ALL']
end
