What is Postgres

PostgreSQL, also known as Postgres, is a free and open-source relational database management system emphasizing extensibility and SQL compliance. PostgreSQL features transactions with atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability properties, automatically updatable views, materialized views, triggers, foreign keys, and stored procedures.

Creating the server

To create a server, we suppose that you've already created and linked an account into the panel.

At DBH we have 2 versions of Postgres you can use, you can use Postgres14 or Postgres16. Both are the same just different versions

In that case, go to DBH server and run this command:

For a free server: DBH!server create (Postgres14|Postgres16) [optional server name]

For a donator server: DBH!server create-donator (Postgres14|Postgres16) [optional name]

Connect to the database

In order to connect to your fresh created database start the server and use the following link:

postgres://container:<PASSWORD>@nX.danbot.host:<port>/postgres

Fields

The link given above isn't enough for you to connect to the database, now you have to modify it to actually connect to the database.

Node

"nX" in "nX.danbot.host" is replaced with your server's node. It can be:

NodeDomain
PNode 1pnode1.danbot.host
PNode 2pnode2.danbot.host
PNode 3pnode3.danbot.host
Dono 01dono-01.danbot.host
Dono 03dono-03.danbot.host

Password

"password" can be found in the Startup tab.

Note:

Given page screenshot is an example of the password, it does not carry any important information as the server was already deleted.

Port

"port" is your server's port that can be found in the main page.

Note:

YOU MUST USE YOU'RE SERVERS PORT! IF YOU DON'T THIS WILL NOT WORK!

Final result

As soon as you finished with the link it should look like this:

postgres://pterodactyl:[email protected]:1234/postgres
