The (gnu services databases)
module provides the following services.
The following example describes a PostgreSQL service with the default configuration.
(service postgresql-service-type
(postgresql-configuration
(postgresql postgresql-10)))
If the services fails to start, it may be due to an incompatible cluster already present in data-directory. Adjust it (or, if you don’t need the cluster anymore, delete data-directory), then restart the service.
Peer authentication is used by default and the postgres
user account
has no shell, which prevents the direct execution of psql
commands as
this user. To use psql
, you can temporarily log in as
postgres
using a shell, create a PostgreSQL superuser with the same
name as one of the system users and then create the associated database.
sudo -u postgres -s /bin/sh createuser --interactive createdb $MY_USER_LOGIN # Replace appropriately.
Data type representing the configuration for the
postgresql-service-type
.
postgresql
PostgreSQL package to use for the service.
port
(default: 5432
)Port on which PostgreSQL should listen.
locale
(default: "en_US.utf8"
)Locale to use as the default when creating the database cluster.
config-file
(default: (postgresql-config-file)
)The configuration file to use when running PostgreSQL. The default behaviour uses the postgresql-config-file record with the default values for the fields.
log-directory
(default: "/var/log/postgresql"
)The directory where pg_ctl
output will be written in a file named
"pg_ctl.log"
. This file can be useful to debug PostgreSQL
configuration errors for instance.
data-directory
(default: "/var/lib/postgresql/data"
)Directory in which to store the data.
extension-packages
(default: '()
) ¶Additional extensions are loaded from packages listed in
extension-packages. Extensions are available at runtime. For
instance, to create a geographic database using the postgis
extension, a user can configure the postgresql-service as in this example:
(use-package-modules databases geo) (operating-system ... ;; postgresql is required to run `psql' but postgis is not required for ;; proper operation. (packages (cons* postgresql %base-packages)) (services (cons* (service postgresql-service-type (postgresql-configuration (postgresql postgresql-10) (extension-packages (list postgis)))) %base-services)))
Then the extension becomes visible and you can initialise an empty geographic database in this way:
psql -U postgres > create database postgistest; > \connect postgistest; > create extension postgis; > create extension postgis_topology;
There is no need to add this field for contrib extensions such as hstore or dblink as they are already loadable by postgresql. This field is only required to add extensions provided by other packages.
Data type representing the PostgreSQL configuration file. As shown in the following example, this can be used to customize the configuration of PostgreSQL. Note that you can use any G-expression or filename in place of this record, if you already have a configuration file you’d like to use for example.
(service postgresql-service-type
(postgresql-configuration
(config-file
(postgresql-config-file
(log-destination "stderr")
(hba-file
(plain-file "pg_hba.conf"
"
local all all trust
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all ::1/128 md5"))
(extra-config
'(("session_preload_libraries" "auto_explain")
("random_page_cost" 2)
("auto_explain.log_min_duration" "100 ms")
("work_mem" "500 MB")
("logging_collector" #t)
("log_directory" "/var/log/postgresql")))))))
log-destination
(default: "syslog"
)The logging method to use for PostgreSQL. Multiple values are accepted, separated by commas.
hba-file
(default: %default-postgres-hba
)Filename or G-expression for the host-based authentication configuration.
ident-file
(default: %default-postgres-ident
)Filename or G-expression for the user name mapping configuration.
socket-directory
(default: "/var/run/postgresql"
)Specifies the directory of the Unix-domain socket(s) on which PostgreSQL is
to listen for connections from client applications. If set to ""
PostgreSQL does not listen on any Unix-domain sockets, in which case only
TCP/IP sockets can be used to connect to the server.
By default, the #false
value means the PostgreSQL default value will
be used, which is currently ‘/tmp’.
extra-config
(default: '()
)List of additional keys and values to include in the PostgreSQL config file. Each entry in the list should be a list where the first element is the key, and the remaining elements are the values.
The values can be numbers, booleans or strings and will be mapped to
PostgreSQL parameters types Boolean
, String
, Numeric
,
Numeric with Unit
and Enumerated
described
here.
This service allows to create PostgreSQL roles and databases after PostgreSQL service start. Here is an example of its use.
(service postgresql-role-service-type
(postgresql-role-configuration
(roles
(list (postgresql-role
(name "test")
(create-database? #t))))))
This service can be extended with extra roles, as in this example:
(service-extension postgresql-role-service-type
(const (postgresql-role
(name "alice")
(create-database? #t))))
PostgreSQL manages database access permissions using the concept of roles. A role can be thought of as either a database user, or a group of database users, depending on how the role is set up. Roles can own database objects (for example, tables) and can assign privileges on those objects to other roles to control who has access to which objects.
名字
The role name.
permissions
(default: '(createdb login)
)The role permissions list. Supported permissions are bypassrls
,
createdb
, createrole
, login
, replication
and
superuser
.
create-database?
(default: #f
)Whether to create a database with the same name as the role.
Data type representing the configuration of postgresql-role-service-type.
host
(default: "/var/run/postgresql"
)The PostgreSQL host to connect to.
log
(default: "/var/log/postgresql_roles.log"
)File name of the log file.
roles
(default: '()
)The initial PostgreSQL roles to create.
This is the service type for a MySQL or MariaDB database server. Its value
is a mysql-configuration
object that specifies which package to use,
as well as various settings for the mysqld
daemon.
Data type representing the configuration of mysql-service-type.
mysql
(default: mariadb)Package object of the MySQL database server, can be either mariadb or mysql.
For MySQL, a temporary root password will be displayed at activation time. For MariaDB, the root password is empty.
bind-address
(default: "127.0.0.1"
)The IP on which to listen for network connections. Use "0.0.0.0"
to
bind to all available network interfaces.
port

)List of environment variables passed to the mysqld
process.
auto-upgrade?
(default: #t
)Whether to automatically run mysql_upgrade
after starting the
service. This is necessary to upgrade the system schema after
“major” updates (such as switching from MariaDB 10.4 to 10.5), but can be
disabled if you would rather do that manually.
This is the service type for the Memcached
service, which provides a distributed in memory cache. The value for the
