Configuration ============= :py:mod:`sprockets-postgres ` is configured via environment variables. The following table details the configuration options and their defaults. +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | Variable | Definition | Default | +=================================+==================================================+===========+ | ``POSTGRES_URL`` | The PostgreSQL URL to connect to | | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_MAX_POOL_SIZE`` | Maximum connection count to Postgres per backend | ``10`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_MIN_POOL_SIZE`` | Minimum or starting pool size. | ``1`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT`` | The maximum time in seconds to spend attempting | ``10`` | | | to create a new connection. | | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_CONNECTION_TTL`` | Time-to-life in seconds for a pooled connection. | ``300`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_QUERY_TIMEOUT`` | Maximum execution time for a query in seconds. | ``60`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_HSTORE`` | Enable HSTORE support in the client. | ``FALSE`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_JSON`` | Enable JSON support in the client. | ``FALSE`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | ``POSTGRES_UUID`` | Enable UUID support in the client. | ``TRUE`` | +---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------+ If ``POSTGRES_URL`` uses a scheme of ``postgresql+srv``, a SRV DNS lookup will be performed and the URL will be constructed containing all host and port combinations in priority and weighted order, utilizing `libpq's supoprt `_ for multiple hosts in a URL. AWS's ECS service discovery does not follow the SRV standard, but creates SRV records. If ``POSTGRES_URL`` uses a scheme of ``aws+srv``, a SRV DNS lookup will be performed using the correct format for ECS service discovery.
