PostgreSQLSource:modules/services/databases/postgresql.nixUpstream documentation:
PostgreSQL is an advanced, free relational database.
Configuring
To enable PostgreSQL, add the following to your
configuration.nix:
= true;
= pkgs.postgresql_9_4;
Note that you are required to specify the desired version of PostgreSQL
(e.g. pkgs.postgresql_9_4). Since upgrading your
PostgreSQL version requires a database dump and reload (see below), NixOS
cannot provide a default value for
such as the most recent
release of PostgreSQL.
By default, PostgreSQL stores its databases in
/var/db/postgresql. You can override this using
, e.g.
= "/data/postgresql";
Upgrading
