build

docker build . -t pg-repack-docker

run postgres

This image extends the official postgres docker image - so you can start a container with postgres following the official image.
e.g. pg16 (+pg_repack 1.5.0):

docker run -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=1234 --name pg16 -p 5432:5432 -d hartmutcouk/pg-repack-docker:1.5.0

psql from local:

PGPASSWORD=supersecure psql -h localhost -U postgres

psql via docker:

docker run -e PGPASSWORD=supersecure -it --rm --network host hartmutcouk/pg-repack-docker:1.5.0 psql -h localhost -U postgres

exec pg_repack against host network

docker run -e PGPASSWORD=1234 -it --rm --network host hartmutcouk/pg-repack-docker:1.5.0 pg_repack -h localhost -U dbroot --dbname=dbname --dry-run --table=table1 --only-indexes --no-superuser-check

Notes:

• uses host network: --network host
• passing PGPASSWORD via env variable avoids password prompt (to e.g. exec via script/cron)
