从主机上运行的 django 连接到 docker 容器内的 postgres 数据库

Question

I have a postgres database running inside a container with pgadmin connected to it, the docker-compose.yml is as follows:

postgres:
  image: postgres:13.0-alpine
  volumes:
    - postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data
  ports:
    - "5432:5432"
  env_file:
    - $ENV_FILE

pgadmin:
  image: dpage/pgadmin4
  volumes:
    - pgadmin:/var/lib/pgadmin
  ports:
    - "${PGADMIN_PORT:-5050}:80"
  restart: unless-stopped
  depends_on:
    - postgres
  env_file:
    - $ENV_FILE

my django database settings are:

DATABASES = {
    "default": {
        "ENGINE": os.environ.get("POSTGRES_ENGINE", "django.db.backends.postgresql"),
        "NAME": os.environ.get("POSTGRES_NAME", "postgres"),
        "USER": os.environ.get("POSTGRES_USER", "admin"),
        "PASSWORD": os.environ.get("POSTGRES_PASS", "admin"),
        "HOST": os.environ.get("POSTGRES_HOST", "127.0.0.1"),
        "PORT": os.environ.get("POSTGRES_PORT", "5432"),
    }
}

The traceback is:

django.db.utils.OperationalError: connection to server at "127.0.0.1", port 5432 failed: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "admin"

Absolutely no idea what is going on as my env file has the exact same password in it as the settings.py in my django project.

To be clear, i am running the postgres containers in docker and then trying to run the django test server locally on the host machine, and the error is thrown on startup.

Answer 1

So for anyone that finds this, i was helped along hugely by this thread; Connecting to Postgresql in a docker container from outside

The problem ended up being that for some reason port 5432 was in use, i think by django itself (although if anyone knows the real answer that knowledge would be greatly appreciated), and the solution was to change the port mapping to another port, in my case:

postgres:
  ports:
    - "6543:5432"

you can then test if you can acces your postgres db from a terminal on your host machine through a uri as follows:

psql postgresql://<postgres_user_name>:<postgres_pass>@localhost:6543/postgres

another problem i ran into is that to get the psql command, you need to add postgres to your system environment variables path as follows: %PROGRAMFILES%/PostgreSQL/<postgres_version_num>/bin/
