Accessing root on Percona Postgres instances

PostgreSQL

Hello @christopher ,

it will not be in Oct-Dec release, but will land in Q1’24. The release scope for Q4’23 is already secured and in dev. Sorry for bringing bad news.

Hello Sergey,

OK… I understand. Unfortunately I cannot wait until Q1 2024 to go to production. We have already delayed our migration to November.

So… al alternative for us is to build our own database image that already includes the dictionaries that we need. Is is documented somewhere how one might build their own percona Postgres image for use with your operator? I do not see anything in Github or within the operator repo. Can you provide more information.

Alternately I suppose we could clone and add the appropriate functionality to the operator ourself. That might be a better approach for both of us. Do you have guidelines on submitting patches?

Also… have you thought further on your sidecar suggestion, as noted above, I do not see how that could possibly work but you seemed to feel that there was a way. Did you find a way?

Thanks
Chris

Thanks

I tried it with sidecar and it does not work.

As for your question about Dockerfiles, you can find them here: https://github.com/percona/percona-docker/tree/main/postgresql-containers

Use this dockerfile for PGv2 Operator database container: https://github.com/percona/percona-docker/tree/main/postgresql-containers/build/postgres

Thank you for providing the link. I guess I was looking for a repo that just included postgres.

I see now that all database builds are in one place.

Hello @christopher - it is on the roadmap, but I don’t have any specific ETA for it.
