Database Notes

Docker setup

• Pull image: docker pull postgres

• Create persistent volume: docker volume create my_postgres_data

• Run container: docker run --name my-postgres-container -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword -v my_postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data -d postgres

• Access the cli of the database in the container: docker exec -it my-postgres-container psql -U postgres

Database setup

• Create: CREATE DATABASE mydatabase;

• Connect: \c mydatabase

• Create table: CREATE TABLE users ( id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, username VARCHAR(50) UNIQUE NOT NULL, email VARCHAR(100) UNIQUE NOT NULL, created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP );

• Insert: INSERT INTO users (username, email) VALUES ('john_doe', '[email protected]');

• Select: SELECT * FROM users;

To stop and remove container

docker stop my-postgres-container docker rm my-postgres-container

Remove all data

docker volume rm my_postgres_data

For some reason docker-compose not working.

TODOs

• Tests
• Abstractions (db controller layer)
• Middleware (auth cookie, rate limit)
• Restructure database for different tables
