pgAdmin 4

This is a simple Raspberry Docker image for running pgAdmin 4 in a container. The default configuration is not intended for production use (it runs in "desktop mode", so authentication is disabled).

This image uses an unprivileged user, and uses port 5050 instead of 80. To access the web-interface on port 80 instead of 5050, you can map the port using -p 80:5050.

Fix issue of Docker on Mac OSX

Sometimes happens that Docker on Mack hangs at startup, an useful list of command to fix is:

bash
rm -rf ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.*
cd /usr/local/bin
chmod 0755 dock*

Original credits

Credits for the starting structure of this project goes to https://github.com/FlorianASchroeder/pgadmin4-docker.

Starting from that project, I've added the github actions to build docker image for Raspberry's armv7 architecture.

Tags

To use a specific com***ation of pgAdmin 4 and python see the following table of available image tags.

Lovely! These tags are kept updated automatically (when new minor or patch version are released) by build_versions.py which is run twice a day on CircleCI.

Example use

Docker compose example

bash
version: '2'
services:
  pg_admin:
    container_name: pgAdmin
    image: gpongelli/pgadmin4-docker-armv7:6.19-py3.11
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 5050:5050
    volumes:
      - ./volumes/pg_admin/servers.json:/pgadmin/servers.json
    networks:
      ...
    environment:
      ...

Quick start

To see this image in action, run the following command;

bash
$ docker run --rm -p 5050:5050 docker pull gpongelli/pgadmin4-docker-armv7:6.19-py3.11

This starts a one-off container in non-detached mode, and container logs are printed in your terminal. After the container has finished starting, visit http://[your-docker-host]:5050 in your browser to try pgAdmin 4.

To exit and remove the container, press CTRL+C in your terminal.

Practical example

This example uses a custom network, and runs a PostgreSQL container.

bash
# create a custom network for easier connecting
$ docker network create pg

# start a postgres container
$ docker run -d -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password --network=pg --name postgres postgres:9-alpine

# start pgAdmin container
$ docker run -d -p 5050:5050 --name pgadmin --network=pg gpongelli/pgadmin4-docker-armv7:6.19-py3.11

Now visit http://[your-docker-host]:5050 in your browser. You can add the postgres database (hostname is postgres, password is password) to test if everything is working.

Persistent data

Persistent data is stored in a volume, located at /pgadmin/. This allows you to upgrade the container to a new version without losing configuration.

The following directories can be found inside the volume;

• /pgadmin/config/pgadmin4.db - SQLite configuration database
• /pgadmin/storage/ - other storage

You can override the storage location using the PG_ADMIN_DATA_DIR environment variable

Unprivileged user

pgAdmin runs as an unprivileged user (pgadmin) with uid:gid 1000:50. The uid:gid is selected for compatibility with Docker Toolbox, and allows you to ***d-mount a local directory inside the container for persistent storage

For example, to ***d-mount the /Users/me/pgadmin directory as storage directory;

bash
$ docker run -d -p 5050:5050 -v /Users/me/pgadmin:/pgadmin gpongelli/pgadmin4-docker-armv7:6.19-py3.11

Run the image with a read-only filesystem

This image can be run with a read-only filesystem. To do so, specify the --read-only flag when starting the container.

bash
$ docker run -d -p 5050:5050 --name pgadmin --read-only gpongelli/pgadmin4-docker-armv7:6.19-py3.11

Runtime configuration

This image can be configured at runtime, by setting environment variables;

• PG_ADMIN_DATA_DIR directory to use for storing data (defaults to /pgadmin/)
• PG_ADMIN_PORT port to listen on (defaults to 5050)
• PG_ADMIN_SESSION_DIR directory to use for storing server-side sessions (defaults to /dev/shm/pgAdmin4_session)
• DEBUG enable debug mode (detaults to False)
