SYNC-DBCONFIG(1)

📦 version 1.3.0, in nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

✨ sync-dbconfig(1) — the GNU Taler glow-up edition ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to sync-dbconfig, and yes the manual page for it lives under GNU Taler (section 1, for the curious 👑). This is your little group-chat briefing on it, no cap.

🎀 NAME 🎀

sync-dbconfig — configure sync database. literally that's the whole job 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

sync-dbconfig [-c FILENAME] [-h] [-n NAME] [-r] [-s] [-u USER]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so sync-dbconfig is a simple shell script — like, humble vibes, big impact — and what it does is configure a Postgresql database so that sync-httpd can use it. that's the main character energy right there 🫶

her options are as follows, go off:

  • -c FILENAME — write the database configuration to FILENAME. the tool will append the required CONFIG option for the Postgresql access to the respective file. (append, bestie — it doesn't overwrite your stuff ✨)
  • -h — print short help on options. the "help me help you" flag 💖
  • -n DBNAME — use DBNAME for the name of the created database. name her, slay 🎀
  • -r — reset any existing database. looses all existing data. DANGEROUS. 💀 like, actually dangerous, not cute-dangerous. you have been warned, fr fr 🙈
  • -s — skip database initialization. useful if you want to run sync-dbinit manually. you do you, icon 👑
  • -u USER — specifies the (main) sync user that will access the database. the VIP with the keys 🔥
