Re: [Sqlalchemy-users] Postgres unix sockets

[Rick Morrison]

I think that psycopg2 will automatically use a Unix socket if a host address is omitted on the connection call. You'd need a way to have SA not supply that -- not sure how that would fit in with the dburi way of things. What's the big deal with using localhost anyway? I was under the impression that it was optimized for most of the Unixen and BSDs out there to be about as fast as a socket anyway.

Hi,

Hi, is it possible to connect to a postgres database engine using a unix socket?
All that I have found is the syntax for connecting to a network port.

Cheers,
