Automatic management of PostgreSQL for local development #1962

Open Changaco opened 3 years ago

Changaco commented 3 years ago

It would be nice if Liberapay had scripts to:

automatically find or install a supported PostgreSQL version, at least on commonly used Unix-like operating systems
configure and launch a dedicated instance for local development

This issue replaces #1304.

Does kubernetes count as a solution?

Changaco commented 3 years ago

Kubernetes is for cluster management, it's irrelevant to this issue.

techtonik commented 3 years ago

@Changaco not really. You need to organize the cluster yourself, and then k8s takes over managing containers that are run there. It is an overkill for just two containers, of course.
