Requirements

1. A PostgreSQL (14 or higher) database is required for Zipline, the official postgresql15 app is recommended

2. Update the required variables:
   1. (Optional) Adjust the container WebUI port, by default this is 8092.
   2. CORE_SECRET: A random string used to sign sensitive data
   3. CORE_DATABASE_URL: Your Postgres database connection string
       
3. Done! Create the container and visit the web UI, you will be prompted to login, the default credentials are:
   1. Username: administrator

Ok I need some help. But first let me just say that I hate postgres.

I can't get this to work (database connection problems).

 

I have tried:

postgresql://rootuser:rootpassword@serverip:5432

 

And it still doesn't work even though I have created the database. I have even created a database and a proper user and granted privileges but I can't connect. 

 

I get this error: Error: P1013: The provided database string is invalid. invalid port number in database URL.

 

And yes I have triple checked the ports.

 

Either I'm doing something wrong or I'm missing something here. Please help.

 

 

Edit:

Creating a separate user gives me this:

2023-08-27 10:48:15,390 PM info  [database::migrations] ensuring database exists, if not creating database - may error if no permissions
2023-08-27 10:48:15,571 PM error [database::migrations] failed to push schema
2023-08-27 10:48:15,572 PM error [database::migrations] Failed to migrate database... exiting...
2023-08-27 10:48:15,575 PM error [database::migrations] Error: db error: ERROR: function gen_random_uuid() does not exist

@gxs What version of postgres are you running?

 

Also it looks like you are missing the database at the end of the string:

postgresql://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/DATABASE

• USERNAME: Your PostgreSQL username
• PASSWORD: The password to the account
• HOST: The host name (likely your Unraid server IP if its running on the same server)
• PORT: Postgres port (default 5432)
• DATABASE: The database to use (recommend 'zipline', it will be automatically created)

 

So in your case, try: postgresql://rootuser:rootpassword@serverip:5432/zipline

@gxs I believe the issue you are having is related to postgres version. I'd suggest using postgresql13 or higher since that comes bundled with gen_random_uuid by default, where with 12, you need to load the extension. I'm rather new to all this as well though, so I could be slightly incorrect, but, that's what fixed that issue for me.

Probably it then as I've just checked and I'm running Postgresql 12.5.

 

Thanks

Zipline originally uses an image for PostgreSQL 15, I am personally using 14 and haven't had any issues though I have updated the template to reflect this information, thanks for letting me know.

[gxs]

It was my old version. I've just installed PostgreSQL 15 and it works now.

 

Thanks for the docker.

Having "Show Version in Sidebar:" set to false causes the webgui fail to load, shows "something went wrong..." after login in with administrator.

Just installed, love it. Is the 4gb container size normal? I've got everything pointing to /mnt/user folders

Unfortunately yes, this container comes straight from the latest release on the official GitHub: ghcr.io/diced/zipline:latest

Zipline is incredibly bulky for some reason.
