Thanks for finishing this little tutorial. If you want to access your database directly from the host machine, the only difference is that you would need to supply host and port parameters to psql: Please keep in mind that the default username is postgres: In the case of Postgres, you can use psql to interact with the database. One way is using Kitematic, by pressing the “EXEC” button on top:Īfter pressing the button, a terminal opens and you have access to the container.
#Kitematic mongo how to
Now that your container is running, you might be wondering about how to access it.
For simplicity, you can set “PUBLISHED IP:PORT” to localhost:5432 if you want to, but this is not necessary. The above means that Postgres is running on its typical port in the container (5432), and that port is “bridged” to port 32770 on your local machine. Select your container, navigate to Settings -> Hostname/Ports. Since our container is running in an isolated environment, you should be able to get access to it from your local machine. In “CONTAINER LOGS” section you can observe information that the container is logging in real-time.Ĭongratulations, you just installed and ran a PostgreSQL database on your local machine using Docker and Kitematic! You can start/stop/restart the container any time, and this happens fast because Docker containers are very lightweight. You should see the “RUNNING” status next to your container name in the status bar on top. It should also run the container automatically when it is ready.
#Kitematic mongo download
Kitematic will download the image for you and create a container. I chose 11.1.Įxit the options menu and click the “CREATE” button. There are quite some available, let’s choose one and continue. Here you can choose which version of Postgres you want to install. Note that official images are marked with an appropriate label, like the first search result under “Recommended” section in the screenshot below.īefore clicking the “CREATE” button, tap the three dots to the left of it. Let us find the official PostgreSQL image by typing “postgres” in the search bar. Now you can browse through thousands of Docker images available in the hub. You might need to create a Docker Hub account, so in case Kitematic refuses to work without one, please register and login. Once you got both running, you should land in the Kitematic interface. Step 2: Download PostgreSQL imageĬool, now that the tools are installed, make sure that Docker is running before launching Kitematic. You can get Docker Desktop here and Kitematic here, both of the apps are free. Docker Desktop contains the Docker engine required to operate containers, and Kitematic is a beautiful graphical user interface for running containers. We are going to need two tools: Docker Desktop and Kitematic.
#Kitematic mongo install
After reading this article, you will be able to install and manage thousands of other images available on the Docker Hub, such as Nginx, MongoDB, Redis, Node.js, etc., without all the difficulties of setting them up and managing yourself. This will allow you to manage applications in lightweight Docker containers, without a need to install them on your host machine or a Virtual Machine. In this post, you are going to experience a quick and painless installation of a PostgreSQL database on your local machine using Docker. A painless experience of installing a database locally with Docker and Kitematic.
