Actually, the host defaults to the local socket. Using the port
may still be needed: if you leave it out, it simply uses the default
value (5432) if left out. Thus, for most purposes, just leaving
the host out is enough to cause a socket connection on the default
port.
For completeness in the archives, you can also specify the complete
path to the unix socket directory in the host line, for those cases in
which the socket is not where you expect it to be:
$dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Pg:dbname=test;host=/var/local/sockets',
$user, $pass, {AutoCommit=>0, RaiseError=>1});
