Pgdevserver is a command line tool for managing ephemeral postgres servers in a development environment.
When you start a server, pgdevserver will:
- If an existing server meets your requirements it outputs a that server's connection url and exits.
- Checks for the necessary postgres binaries and downloads them if required.
- Creates and starts a new server.
- Outputs a connection url for the new server.
