pg_user uses the format and location of the .pgpass file the resides in the $HOME directory of the user running the program.

Example of a host details in the .pgpass format

<HOST>:<PORT>:<DATABASE>:<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>

$ pg_user add [email protected] --host mydatabase.com

This requires the hostname mydatabase.com must be configured in the .pgpass file

To also add roles to the user when creating use

$ pg_user add [email protected] --host mydatabase.com --roles role1,role2

This repository is very plain and simple and development of the application only required go.

$ go run main.go hosts will compile the application and list all configured hosts in your .pgpass file.

release a new version by creating a tag and pushing it, then goreleaser will do the rest

git push origin v0.x.0
