Where is the Dockerfile of the pgbouncer image?

[pierreozoux]

I plan to use a docker image to have pgbouncer in a cluster, but for something else than postgres-operator, and I was wondering where is the code of the image so that I can reuse it.
(Seems like the other option is bitnami or "personal" image, I'd prefer to rely on zalando and its beautiful community!)

Thanks :)

We haven't yet open sourced the image. It also includes some patches to pgBouncer. Would like to publish, but other topics had a higher priority so far

I'm running into a similar situation, where it seems there's some custom config applied to the pgbouncer image that expects these lines in the pgbouncer.ini.tmpl file:

stats_users_prefix = robot_

When the open source pgbouncer attempts to start with that in the ini file, it will error out. Any insight into what Spilo is doing with pgbouncer to expect that in the ini file would be welcome!

+1 for publishing Dockerfile of pgBouncer

[francoispqt]

+1 for publishing the Dockerfile, or at least be transparent on what are the patches to pgbouncer. We want to know what we are running on our system.

[andyndang]

+1 for publishing the docker image. We want to deploy to ARM64 and this is currently blocking us

[bwrobc]

+1 for publishing the Dockerfile and PGBouncer patches, for all the above reasons. It's been about nine months since this issue was opened.

Hi Guys

Any luck on this ? Will really appreciate if you can move it forward.

+1 for Dockerfile and/or patches. Trying to deploy to a cluster running both arm64 and amd64 nodes, and can't set a nodeSelector for the connectionPooler settings in Postgresql custom resource yaml.

+1, please upload the dockerfile, needs to update the pgbouncer version and other settings like ssl

[raviranjanelastisys]

Any update here?

+1, pgbouncer 1.21 was released with added supprot for prepared statements https://www.pgbouncer.org/2023/10/pgbouncer-1-21-0. The newest version of pgbouncer image is 1.20 and its even unsafe to create own build

This can be reconstructed through the history

So the missing part is actually the compiled pgbouncer binary. So given that, building an image from the latest pgbouncer image should be fine if it is just about adding things to the config.

What is the usecase for the robot user? If we put our own pgbouncer image, what would we need to expect to have on it?

[mamccorm]

Hey @FxKu, any updates here? we're hoping to leverage this operator in a secure environment but have concerns around CVEs in the image, as well as there being closed-source modifications to pgbouncer. It also looks like there is potentially another zalando-marker application at play as well.

Can you publish the source for those? I'm guessing they are light patches to make compatible with the operators settings. or alternatively, publish them as archives somewhere that users could re-use to build their own image?
