Access to CloudSQL Postgres database using unix socket

Help me!

Hi @narciero, and Welcome to the Forest Admin community!

(I’m assuming here that you were able to fully onboard on your own localhost, and that’s the deployment process that fails, am I right?)

I’m not that familiar to the complete GCSQL/GCR environment, I’m pretty sure you can proxy the database to expose a classic database connection string, but you might not want to do this I guess ?

For now, we do not support unix socket connection string, at least from the onboarding screens. You might still be able to initialize Sequelize in the models/index.js folder using this socket though, using the dialectOptions parameters, like :

var sequelizeConfig = {
    dialect: 'postgres',
    dialectOptions: {
        socketPath: '/path/to/the/socket',
    }
    port: 5432,
};

Let me now if that helps :slight_smile:
