support postgresql

[arankaren]

Is there support for postgresql?. I've only seen MariaDB in documentation

[FireMasterK]

I actually tried to run yotter with postgres, and when I did so, I was getting some stackoverflow and timeout exceptions, I think this will require some work.

Yes, as @FireMasterK said this needs some work. I will not invest time on implementing this for now as we have other priorities. If you (or anyone) wants to do it, you can go ahead an make a PR!

@pluja a developer named heckyel heckyel.i2p shared the command to make Yotter work with Posgresql.

Configuration for Postgres

1. Login as postgres
   sudo su - postgres

2. Create base
   createdb namebase

3. Create User (place a password for our user)
   createuser -P username

4. Inside the database
   psql -d namebase

5. Give permissions to the created user
   GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE namebase TO username;

6. Exit
   \q

Configuration Yotter

Requirements

$ pip install psycopg2-binary

Edit .env file

DATABASE_URL=postgresql+psycopg2://username:password@localhost:5432/namebase

Awesome! I'll test it and add this to the self-hosting docs 💯

@arankaren have you already tested this?
