PostGres Playground

Just PostGres running in a Docker container, useful for prototyping or as a starting place for projects.

The wrapper shell script, pg-local, spins up a PostGres instance and creates a database called dev.

Getting Started

Pull the latest PostGres image and spin up a container:

./pg-local pull
./pg-local create

You can run a psql prompt inside the container using:

./pg-local prompt

Also, any scripts in the sql/ folder will be executable by the container:

./pg-local execute example.sql
