Postgres Tools Environment

This Dockerfile builds on the official postgres image and replaces the entry point with one suitable for running Postgres command-line tools, such as psql (the default).

Usage

  1. Edit the Dockerfile to use the same tag/branch of the postgres image as your server container, then build this image locally.

    docker build -t postgres-client .

  2. Run this image with a link to your running postgres container.

    docker -it --rm --link my_pg_name:postgres postgres-client psql

    Note: psql is the default command and can be omitted.
