Can't rename db instance

[Spy-Shifty]

When using docker-compose the database instance has to be "db" because of:

def _update_db_connstring():
    user = os.getenv('GEONODE_DATABASE', 'geonode')
    pwd = os.getenv('GEONODE_DATABASE_PASSWORD', 'geonode')
    dbname = os.getenv('GEONODE_DATABASE', 'geonode')
    connstr = 'postgres://{0}:{1}@db:5432/{2}'.format(
        user,
        pwd,
        dbname
    )
    return connstr


def _update_geodb_connstring():
    geouser = os.getenv('GEONODE_GEODATABASE', 'geonode_data')
    geopwd = os.getenv('GEONODE_GEODATABASE_PASSWORD', 'geonode_data')
    geodbname = os.getenv('GEONODE_GEODATABASE', 'geonode_data')
    geoconnstr = 'postgis://{0}:{1}@db:5432/{2}'.format(
        geouser,
        geopwd,
        geodbname
    )
    return geoconnstr

Please change the code to some thing like this:

def _update_db_connstring():
    geoconnstr = os.getenv('GEONODE_DATABASE_URL', '')
    return geoconnstr


def _update_geodb_connstring():
    geoconnstr = os.getenv('GEONODE_GEODATABASE_URL', '')
    return geoconnstr

Where the environment variables are like:

GEONODE_DATABASE_URL=postgres://geonode:geonode@geoserver-db:5432/geonode
GEONODE_GEODATABASE_URL=postgres://geonode_data:geonode_data@geoserver-db:5432/geonode_data

@Spy-Shifty the database instance is taking the hostname from the service name declared in the docker-compose file. This is by design for docker-compose networking. We actually don't need to have it dynamically defined because it is used only for internal communication among containers. I'm going to close this.

Francesco, the snippet of code he linked to has "db" hardcoded. Are you sure there is a parameter to change it?

Hi @ingenieroariel no there isn’t but that change doesn’t make sense to me. Why should we make it a variable? What’s the benefit?

[ingenieroariel]

I just checked the actual code, since it is all in tasks.py and that is tied to the current docker implementation I guess it is okay and end users can just override it if they need to. My main gripe was if it was harcoded in GeoNode itself (the django project). -a
