#23658: Provide the password to PostgreSQL from "dbshell" command
----------------------------------------------+----------------------------
Reporter: etanol | Owner: nobody
Type: New feature | Status: new
Component: Database layer (models, ORM) | Version: 1.7
Severity: Normal | Keywords: postgresql
Triage Stage: Unreviewed | dbshell
Easy pickings: 1 | Has patch: 1
| UI/UX: 1
----------------------------------------------+----------------------------
With the PostgreSQL Django backend, if the database configuration defines
a password, it is not used by the "dbshell" command. Unlike the "mysql"
command, the "psql" command accepts the password through the process
environment. It would be a more uniform experience if the PostgreSQL
driver behaved the same.
Also note from the attached patch that "os.execvpe()" also works on
Windows, so there's no need to distinguish between the two systems.
