temporary - the official docker-postgres solution is not OK? see : https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/blob/master/9.5/docker-entrypoint.sh#L50 *# internal start of server in order to allow set-up using psql-client * *# does not listen on external TCP/IP and waits until start finishes* *gosu postgres pg_ctl -D "$PGDATA" -o "-c listen_addresses='localhost'" * *.....* more info: https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/issues/146 2016-06-15 18:09 GMT+02:00 Jimmy <jimmyj...@gmail.com>: > Not sure if this was discussed in the past and decided it does not belong > to pg_isready utility.... > > I am using pg_isready in dockerized development environment as part of > docker-compose.
