Hi,
We are trying to setup a postgresql Docker container alongside pgadmin
and caddy for use in the PrairieLearn student testing software. Our main
set back is that the PrairieLearn production environment user runs as
user 1001:1001 and as such we have had to rename the postgres user
within Linux to 1001 and alter the credentials management significantly.
Why?
Per:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-initdb.html
You can have the initdb create the cluster as any user:
"-U username
--username=username
Sets the user name of the bootstrap superuser. This defaults to the
name of the operating-system user running initdb.
"
We are currently brainstorming some better ways but if anyone has any
suggestions on easier ways to make these changes then we would
appreciate them. The code is open source and can be viewed here -

Thanks,
