MySQL and Postgresql as standalone apps

[eddowding]

Nudge on this! It looks like there are some good solutions which can easily add a lot of value!

Would love to see this. Self-hosted database makes n8n much more powerful.

Does PocketBase fill that gap?

Does PocketBase fill that gap?

PocketBase is interesting, but I wouldn't reach for it first for core application state. Postgres is "boring technology" which is great for reliability, well-known, well-understood etc. That said, I'm sure PocketBase fills an important niche.

@canadaduane Postgres doesn't have to be boring.

It can be a full stack system all-in-one!

Why bother with other things when it all comes down to the DB.
Have it do it!

I was also looking for this option but too lenghty to make a custom app on cloudron and due to these limitation i deployed portainer on intranetwork and proxy the portainer gui with cloudron app proxy as its on a seperate ubuntu and i have PG, MSSQL and MongoDB their

A standalone, fully customizable PostgreSQL would be nice indeed, I have a use-case where the timescaledb extension is required, has anyone tried that before?

[chmod777]

+1 for this. would make database testing/administration much easier!

@lanhild - i just saw you archived the git repository for the cloudron psql. is the code still usable/"up to date" or should i look elsewhere?

With Cloudron supporting custom apps soon, it would be nice to have this available somehow

[Lanhild]

@chmod777 Archived because I don't maintain it anymore. The core of the app itself works (check through the branches first).

postgres as a standalone app is available in the CA - https://ca.cloudron.io/app/io.cloudron.custom.postgresql

Not MySQL, but MariaDB is also available as a standalone app here: https://ca.cloudron.io/app/io.cloudron.custom.mariadb
