I understand your post about "password does not take an argument, it is meant to be used as is. The purpose is to force a password prompt." When I used -W and --password=.  That's what I said I will try pgpassfile. Thought it like mysq/oracle can indicate out without creating password file.

If you want to expose your password in the script file then:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/app-psql.html

Usage
Connecting to a Database

"An alternative way to specify connection parameters is in a conninfo string or a URI, which is used instead of a database name. This mechanism give you very wide control over the connection. For example:

$ psql "service=myservice sslmode=require"
$ psql postgresql://dbmaster:5433/mydb?sslmode=require

This way you can also use LDAP for connection parameter lookup as described in Section 33.17. See Section 33.1.2 for more information on all the available connection options."

So:

psql postgresql://PSmasteruser:mypassword@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:5432/PSCIDR

or

psql 'dbname=PSCIDR user=PSmasteruser host=hostname.amazonaws.com port= 5432 password=mypassword '


Thank you again.
