ops-lib-pgsql 1.4

PostgreSQL database relation for Juju Operator Framework Charms

Juju Operator Framework Charm Interface for PostgreSQL Relations

To use this interface in your Juju Operator Framework charm, instruct charmcraft to embed it into your built Operator Framework charm by adding ops-lib-pgsql to your requirements.txt file::

ops
ops-lib-pgsql

Your charm needs to declare its use of the interface in its metadata.yaml file:

requires:
  db:
    interface: pgsql
    limit: 1  # Most charms only handle a single PostgreSQL Application.

Your charm needs to bootstrap it and handle events:

pgsql = ops.lib.use("pgsql", 1, "[e-mail]")
