[](https://github.com/hoegaarden/pgpass/actions?query=workflow%3ACI+branch%3Amaster)
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm install pgpass
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
```js
|
|
var pgPass = require('pgpass');
|
|
|
|
var connInfo = {
|
|
'host' : 'pgserver' ,
|
|
'user' : 'the_user_name' ,
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
pgPass(connInfo, function(pass){
|
|
conn_info.password = pass;
|
|
// connect to postgresql server
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
This module tries to read the `~/.pgpass` file (or the equivalent for windows systems). If the environment variable `PGPASSFILE` is set, this file is used instead. If everything goes right, the password from said file is passed to the callback; if the password cannot be read `undefined` is passed to the callback.
|
|
|
|
Cases where `undefined` is returned:
|
|
|
|
- the environment variable `PGPASSWORD` is set
|
|
- the file cannot be read (wrong permissions, no such file, ...)
|
|
- for non windows systems: the file is write-/readable by the group or by other users
|
|
- there is no matching line for the given connection info
|
|
|
|
There should be no need to use this module directly; it is already included in `node-postgres`.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
The module reads the environment variable `PGPASS_NO_DEESCAPE` to decide if the the read tokens from the password file should be de-escaped or not. Default is to do de-escaping. For further information on this see [this commit](https://github.com/postgres/postgres/commit/8d15e3ec4fcb735875a8a70a09ec0c62153c3329).

## Tests
|
|
|
|
There are tests in `./test/`; including linting and coverage testing. Running `npm test` runs:
|
|
|
|
- `jshint`
|
|
- `mocha` tests
|
|
- `jscoverage` and `mocha -R html-cov`
|
|
|
|
You can see the coverage report in `coverage.html`.
