`package:drift_postgres` extends [drift](https://drift.simonbinder.eu/) to support talking to PostgreSQL databases by using the `postgres` package. ## Using this For general notes on using drift, see [this guide](https://drift.simonbinder.eu/getting-started/). Detailed docs on getting started with `drift_postgres` are available [here](https://drift.simonbinder.eu/docs/platforms/postgres/#setup). To use drift_postgres, add this to your `pubspec.yaml` ```yaml dependencies: drift: "$latest version" drift_postgres: ^0.1.0 ``` To connect your drift database class to postgres, use a `PgDatabase` from `package:drift_postgres/postgres.dart`: ```dart final database = AppDatabase(PgDatabase( endpoint: PgEndpoint( host: 'localhost', database: 'postgres', username: 'postgres', password: 'postgres', ), )); ``` Also, consider adding builder options to make drift generate postgres-specific code: ```yaml # build.yaml targets: $default: builders: drift_dev: options: sql: dialects: - sqlite # remove this line if you only need postgres - postgres ``` ## Running tests To test this package, first run ``` docker run -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_USER=postgres -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres postgres ``` It can then be tested with `dart test -j 1` (concurrency needs to be disabled since tests are using the same database).
