harlequin-postgres

This project provides the Harlequin adapter for Postgres. For more information, see harlequin.sh.

Installation

You must install the harlequin-postgres package into the same environment as harlequin. The best and easiest way to do this is to use uv to install Harlequin with the postgres extra:

uv tool install 'harlequin[postgres]'

Using Harlequin with Postgres

To connect to a Postgres database, run Harlequin with the -a postgres option and pass a Posgres DSN as an argument:

harlequin -a postgres "postgres://my-user:my-pass@localhost:5432/my-database"

Connection Options

You can also pass all or parts of the connection string as separate options. The following is equivalent to the above DSN:

harlequin -a postgres -h localhost -p 5432 -U my-user --password my-pass -d my-database

The supported connection options are:

host
port
dbname
user
password
passfile
require_auth
channel_binding
connect_timeout
sslmode
sslcert
sslkey

For descriptions of each option, run:

harlequin --help

Environment Variables

Harlequin's Postgres driver will load connection information from the standard PG* environment variables. Any options supplied at the command-line will override environment variables.

Manual Transactions

To use Manual transaction mode, click on the label in the Run Query Bar to toggle the transaction mode from Auto to Manual.
