cloudnative-pg-timescaledb-postgis-containers

Operand images for CloudNativePG containing PostgreSQL with TimescaleDB and PostGIS

Immutable Application Containers for all available PostgreSQL versions (12 to 16) + TimescaleDB + PostGIS to be used as operands with the CloudNativePG operator for Kubernetes.

These images are built on top of the PostGIS image (Debian version), by adding the following software:

  • TimescaleDB
  • Barman Cloud
  • PGAudit

Barman Cloud is distributed by EnterpriseDB under the GNU GPL 3 License.

PGAudit is distributed under the PostgreSQL License.

Images are available via the GitHub Container Registry.

How to use them

The following example shows how you can easily create a new PostgreSQL 14 cluster with TimescaleDB 2.10 and PostGIS 3.3 in it. All you have to do is set the imageName accordingly. Please look at the registry for a list of available images and select the one you need.

Create a YAML manifest. For example, you can put the YAML below into a file named timescaledb-postgis.yaml (any name is fine). (Please refer to CloudNativePG for details on the API):

apiVersion: postgresql.cnpg.io/v1
kind: Cluster
metadata:
  name: cluster-example
spec:
  instances: 1
  imageName: ghcr.io/imusmanmalik/timescaledb-postgis:14-3.3
  bootstrap:
    initdb:
      postInitTemplateSQL:
        - CREATE EXTENSION timescaledb;
        - CREATE EXTENSION postgis;
        - CREATE EXTENSION postgis_topology;
        - CREATE EXTENSION fuzzystrmatch;
        - CREATE EXTENSION postgis_tiger_geocoder;
  postgresql:
    shared_preload_libraries:
      - timescaledb
  storage:
    size: 1Gi

Then run kubectl apply -f timescaledb-postgis.yaml.

When the cluster is up, run the following command to verify the version of PostGIS that is available in the system, by connecting to the app database:

kubectl exec -ti cluster-example-1 -- psql app
Defaulted container "postgres" out of: postgres, bootstrap-controller (init)
psql (14.7 (Debian 14.7-1.pgdg110+1))
Type "help" for help.

The following command shows the extensions installed in the app database, thanks to the postInitTemplateSQL section in the bootstrap which runs the selected CREATE EXTENSION commands in the template1 database, which is inherited by the application database - called app and created by default by CloudNativePG.
