Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place.

package 'postgresql-contrib-9.6'

# Install adminpack extension
postgresql_extension 'postgres adminpack' do
  database 'postgres'
  extension 'adminpack'
end

postgresql_access

This resource uses the accumulator pattern to build up the pg_hba.conf file via chef resources instead of piling on a mountain of chef attributes to make this cookbook more reusable. It directly mirrors the configuration options of the postgres hba file in the resource and by default notifies the server with a reload to avoid a full restart, causing a potential outage of service. To revoke access, simply remove the resource and the access change won't be computed into the final pg_hba.conf

Actions

  • grant - (default) Creates an access line inside of pg_hba.conf

Properties

Name Types Description Default Required?
name String Name of the access resource, this is left as a comment inside the pg_hba config Resource name yes
source String The cookbook template filename if you want to use your own custom template 'pg_hba.conf.erb' yes
cookbook String The cookbook to look in for the template source 'postgresql' yes
comment String A comment to leave above the entry in pg_hba nil no
access_type String The type of access, e.g. local or host 'local' yes
access_db String The database to access. Can use 'all' for all databases 'all' yes
access_user String The user accessing the database. Can use 'all' for any user 'all' yes
access_addr String The address(es) allowed access. Can be nil if method ident is used since it is local then nil no
access_method String Authentication method to use 'ident' yes
notification Symbol How to notify Postgres of the access change. :reload yes

Examples

To grant access to the postgresql user with ident authentication:

postgresql_access 'local_postgres_superuser' do
  comment 'Local postgres superuser access'
  access_type 'local'
  access_db 'all'
  access_user 'postgres'
  access_addr nil
  access_method 'ident'
end

This generates the following line in the pg_hba.conf:

# Local postgres superuser access
local   all             postgres                                ident

Note: The template by default generates a local access for Unix domain sockets only to support running the SQL execute resources. In Postgres version 9.1 and higher, the method is 'peer' instead of 'ident' which is identical. It looks like this:

# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local   all             all                                     peer

postgresql_ident

This resource generate pg_ident.conf configuration file to manage user mapping between system and PostgreSQL users.

source String The cookbook template filename if you want to use your own custom template 'pg_ident.conf.erb' no
cookbook String The cookbook to look in for the template source 'postgresql' no
comment String, nil A comment to leave above the entry in pg_ident nil no
system_user String System user or regexp used for the mapping None yes
pg_user String Pg user or regexp used for the mapping None yes
notification Symbol How to notify Postgres of the access change. :reload no

Examples

Creates a mymapping mapping that map john system user to user1 PostgreSQL user:

postgresql_ident 'Map john to user1' do
  comment 'John Mapping'
  mapname 'mymapping'
  system_user 'john'
  pg_user 'user1'
end

This generates the following line in the pg_ident.conf:

# MAPNAME       SYSTEM-USERNAME         PG-USERNAME

# John Mapping
mymapping       john                    user1

To grant access to the foo user with password authentication:

postgresql_access 'local_foo_user' do
  comment 'Foo user access'
  access_type 'host'
  access_db 'all'
  access_user 'foo'
  access_addr '127.0.0.1/32'
  access_method 'md5'
end

This generates the following line in the pg_hba.conf:

# Local postgres superuser access

postgresql Cookbook CHANGELOG

This file is used to list changes made in the last 3 major versions of the postgresql cookbook.

v7.1.0 (22-06-2018)

  • Update the initdb script to use initdb rather than a service. #542
  • Refactor database commands to use the common connect method. #535
  • Increase the unit test coverage.

v7.0.0 (25-05-2018)

Breaking Change Please see UPGRADING.md and the README.md for information how to use.

  • Add custom resources for:

    • postgresql_client_install
    • postgresql_server_install
    • postgresql_repository
    • postgresql_pg_gem
  • Deprecate recipes:

    • apt_pgdg_postgresql
    • config_initdb
    • config_pgtune
    • contrib
    • ruby
    • yum_pgdg_postgresql
  • Remove deprecated tests

v6.1.3 (2018-04-18)

  • Fix recipes referencing the old helpers

v6.1.2 (2018-04-16)

this will be the last release of the 6.0 series before all recipes are removed from the cookbook

  • Deprecate all recipes

v6.1.1 (2017-03-08)

  • Fix pg gem installation on non-omnibus chef runs
  • Resolve resource cloning deprecation warnings in the ruby recipe
  • Fix issues resolving the timezone on CentOS 7 and probably other distros
  • Test with Delivery local instead of Rake

v6.1.0 (2017-02-18)

  • Fix a method name conflict that caused errors if Chef Sugar was also being used on the run list
  • Revert a previous PR that added support for Postgresql 9.6 as it introduced incorrect configuration values
  • Added Fedora 25 support for pgdg packages
  • Added RHEL 5 support for Postgresql 9.4 pgdg packages
  • Removed testing for RHEL 5 and Ubuntu 12.04 as they are scheduled for EoL in the near future
  • Improvements to Test Kitchen testing to allow more extensive testing in Travis CI
  • Fixed the client recipe on Fedora
  • Added Inspec tests for client installs

v6.0.1 (2017-01-04

  • Fix systemd unit file template

v6.0.0 (2017-01-03)

  • This cookbook now requires Chef 12.1 or later
  • Removed the dependency on the apt cookbook as this functionality is built into modern chef client releases
  • Added a new custom resource for installing extensions. This acts as a replacement for the contrib recipe with minimal backwards compatibility. You can now install / remove extensions into any database. This adds the compat_resource cookbook dependency so we can continue to support Chef 12.1-12.4, which lack custom resource support.
  • The unused get_result_orig helper has been removed. If you utilized this you'll want to move it to your own wrapper cookbook
  • Updates for compatibility with Postgresql 9.5 and 9.6
  • Fixed client package installation on openSUSE Leap 42.2
  • ca-certificates recipe has been deprecated. If ca-certificates package needs to be upgraded the user should do so prior to including this recipe. Package upgrades in community cookbooks are generally a bad idea as this bring in updated packages to production systems. The recipe currently warns if used and will be removed with the next major cookbook release.
  • Fixed RHEL platform detection in the Ruby recipe
  • systemd fixes for RHEL systems
  • Fix systemd service file include when using pgdg packages
  • Package installation now uses multi-package installs to speed up converge times
  • Added integration testing in Travis of the client recipe using a new test cookbook. This will be expanded in the future to cover server installation as well
  • Expanded the specs to test converges on multiple platforms

v5.2.0 (2016-12-30)

  • Updated contacts and links to point to Sous Chefs now
  • Added a Code of Conduct (the Chef CoC)
  • Removed duplicate platforms in the metadata
  • Fix Chef runs with local mode in the server recipe
  • Fix the ruby recipe to not fail when you specify enabling both the apt and yum repos for mixed distro environments
  • Set the postgresql data directory to 700 permissions
  • Added node['postgresql']['pg_gem']['version'] to specify the version of the pg gem to install
  • Cookstyle fixes for the latest cookstyle release
  • Removed test deps from the Gemfile. Rely on ChefDK for base testing deps instead

v5.1.0 (2016-11-01)

  • Maintenance of this cookbook has been migrated from Heavy Water to Sous Chefs - https://sous-chefs.org/
  • Add support for Chef-Zero (local mode)
  • Don't hardcode the UID / GID on RHEL/Amazon/Suse platforms
  • Add PGDG yum RPMs for 9.5 / 9.6

  • Avoid installing packages included in build-essential twice in the ruby recipe
  • Require at least build-essential 2.0
  • Don't cleanup the old PPA files in the apt_pgdg_postgresql recipe anymore. These should be long gone everywhere
