Run Postgres in a Docker Container (Easiest PostgreSQL Setup)

[@davidmendelsohn3932]

Thank you Caleb for explaining this all so well! Having first installed postgres on my laptop and then installed docker and then created a container with a postgres Image. I successfully backed up my database from the previous postgres installation then restore(copy) that saved backup to the Postgres image in the docker container. then I just changed the password and port number and my python code connected first time, and then ran all the queries successfully.

This was the most fluent way of working with postgres and docker. Very well explained. I was not able to connect to the database from vs code using postgres explorer extension. Now I got connected and can continue.
Thank you.

So where does docker save the volume and its data in the host machine?

[@HelloHelloXD]

He didn't use the option to save the data but normally I would use a bind mount and pass the folder in the OS to save the data

[@noelkelly4354]

There are defaults when data is saved, unless specified otherwise, it will be something like /var/lib/docker/volumes/ OS/distro dependent.

Watched a bunch of videos all were connecting to container from only one source. But here I found 2 sources I was trying to connect from.

[@pandhu.wibowo]

WOW, cool

[@htmlthypc08283]

Thanks for the tutorial ! However, may I know how we can do it another way round ? That means we want to connect the localhost Postgres from docker container ?

[@Hamster_Off_Wheel]

is downloading docker desktop a necessity ? I am using my office laptop and downloading docker desktop has some issues
