pg-connection-string

Functions for dealing with a PostgresSQL connection string

parse method taken from node-postgres Copyright (c) 2010-2014 Brian Carlson (brian.m.carlson@gmail.com) MIT License

Usage

var parse = require('pg-connection-string').parse;

var config = parse('postgres://someuser:somepassword@somehost:381/somedatabase')

The resulting config contains a subset of the following properties:

• host - Postgres server hostname or, for UNIX domain sockets, the socket filename
• port - port on which to connect
• user - User with which to authenticate to the server
• password - Corresponding password
• database - Database name within the server
• client_encoding - string encoding the client will use
• ssl, either a boolean or an object with properties
  • rejectUnauthorized
  • cert
  • key
  • ca
• any other query parameters (for example, application_name) are preserved intact.

Connection Strings

The short summary of acceptable URLs is:

• socket:<path>?<query> - UNIX domain socket
• postgres://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<database>?<query> - TCP connection

But see below for more details.

UNIX Domain Sockets

When user and password are not given, the socket path follows socket:, as in socket:/var/run/pgsql. This form can be shortened to just a path: /var/run/pgsql.

When user and password are given, they are included in the typical URL positions, with an empty host, as in socket://user:pass@/var/run/pgsql.

Query parameters follow a ? character, including the following special query parameters:

• db=<database> - sets the database name (urlencoded)
• encoding=<encoding> - sets the client_encoding property

TCP Connections

TCP connections to the Postgres server are indicated with pg: or postgres: schemes (in fact, any scheme but socket: is accepted). If username and password are included, they should be urlencoded. The database name, however, should not be urlencoded.

Query parameters follow a ? character, including the following special query parameters:

• host=<host> - sets host property, overriding the URL's host
• encoding=<encoding> - sets the client_encoding property
• ssl=1, ssl=true, ssl=0, ssl=false - sets ssl to true or false, accordingly
• sslmode=<sslmode>
  • sslmode=disable - sets ssl to false
  • sslmode=no-verify - sets ssl to { rejectUnauthorized: false }
  • sslmode=prefer, sslmode=require, sslmode=verify-ca, sslmode=verify-full - sets ssl to true
• sslcert=<filename> - reads data from the given file and includes the result as ssl.cert
• sslkey=<filename> - reads data from the given file and includes the result as ssl.key
• sslrootcert=<filename> - reads data from the given file and includes the result as ssl.ca

A bare relative URL, such as salesdata, will indicate a database name while leaving other properties empty.
