Database
Kitsune requires a PostgreSQL installation that it can connect to since we make usage of Postgres-specific features, such as their full-text search.
You can find instructions on creating a database (along with password-protected user) here.
Database URL structure
Section titled “Database URL structure”postgres://[Username]:[Password]@[DBMS host]:[Port]/[Database name]Example URL
Section titled “Example URL”postgres://database-user:password-here@localhost:5432/db-name-hereMaximum connections
Section titled “Maximum connections”The max-connections setting defines how many connections the globally shared connection pool will open to the database server at maximum.
What you should set this value to depends on many factors.
TLS support
Section titled “TLS support”If you want to connect to a database using TLS, set the parameter use-tls to true.
This setting is equivalent to ssl_mode=full-verify if you are looking for a PostgreSQL equivalent.
Example
Section titled “Example”[database]url = "postgres://kitsune:verysecure@localhost/kitsune_prod"max-connections = 25use-tls = true
