The current configuration of the KGI API server presumes that the PostgreSQL database is hosted on the same machine as the API server, with both the API service and the PostgreSQL database being operated by the same system user. To enhance flexibility, this update introduces a set of environment variables: * POSTGRES_USER: mandatory setting to define the username for database connection. * POSTGRES_PASSWORD: mandatory setting to define the password for database connection. * POSTGRES_DB: mandatory setting to define which database should be used. * POSTGRES_HOST: optional setting to define the host of the database server (default: localhost). * POSTGRES_PORT: optional setting to define the port for database connection (default: 5432).

Actually, I forgot the dockerfiles update, will add with separate commit. |
Both pg-pool and node-postgres are compatible with certain environment variables similar to those supported by 'psql'. However, this compatibility is not guaranteed, and there is a risk of these variables being inadvertently modified in an interactive shell when a user launches an API server from the command line. To ensure consistency, the environment variables have been synchronized with those used in 'kgi-processing' and incorporated into the Docker Compose environment settings.
