To make macOS automatically launch your PostgreSQL server at system start,
|
||
|
do the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Edit the postgres-wrapper.sh script and adjust the file path
|
||
|
variables at its start to reflect where you have installed Postgres,
|
||
|
if that's not /usr/local/pgsql.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Copy the modified postgres-wrapper.sh script into some suitable
|
||
|
installation directory. It can be, but doesn't have to be, where
|
||
|
you keep the Postgres executables themselves.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Edit the org.postgresql.postgres.plist file and adjust its path
|
||
|
for postgres-wrapper.sh to match what you did in step 2. Also,
|
||
|
if you plan to run the Postgres server under some user name other
|
||
|
than "postgres", adjust the UserName parameter value for that.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. Copy the modified org.postgresql.postgres.plist file into
|
||
|
/Library/LaunchDaemons/. You must do this as root:
|
||
|
sudo cp org.postgresql.postgres.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons
|
||
|
because the file will be ignored if it is not root-owned.
|
||
|
|
||
|
At this point a reboot should launch the server. But if you want
|
||
|
to test it without rebooting, you can do
|
||
|
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postgresql.postgres.plist
