Обсуждение: Feature request: ability to set hostaddr
Hi, I'd like to request the ability to set hostaddr separately from host when creating a server connection. This is currently impossible. Alternatively, allow pgAdmin3 to connect to services described in .pg_service.conf, thus allowing a way to set all parameters that are not currently available in the connection configuration UI. Thanks! Chris
Hi, Yes, I would also appreciate if one could connect to a service defined in pg_service.conf I just recently discovered the possibility to define postgres services - though I have been told it had been around for years...

Could you remind me why this would be interesting? AFAIR, they are pretty much the same thing, aren't they? > Alternatively, allow pgAdmin3 to connect to services described > in .pg_service.conf, thus allowing a way to set all parameters that are > not currently available in the connection configuration UI. > +1 (and we already have a ticket to deal with this, so I hope we'll have this in 1.14) -- Guillaumehttp://www.postgresql.frhttp://dalibo.com

I'm sure there are others, but that's mine. Chris

If you can test it, it would be great. -- Guillaume http://www.postgresql.fr http://dalibo.com
