Unable to use Peer auth

[akdor1154]

I want to have db-migrate authenticate by socket / peer auth, but this doesn't seem possible without hacking an env var.

const dbMigrateConfig = {
        default: 'local',
        local: {
              driver: 'pg',
              database: 'mydatabase',
              host: '/var/run/postgres',
              native: true
        }
};

'#ENOENT /var/run/postgres'

process.env['DBTEST'] = 'postgres:///${mydatabase}?host=/var/run/postgresql&native=true';
const dbMigrateConfig = {
        default: 'local',
        local: {
                ENV: "DBTEST"
        }
};

success.

Any chance the normal connection settings could allow connection via a socket?

if the library does not to decide to do this automatically like the mysql ones do on localhost hosts, there is currently no option. The db-config of the database.json gets passed in full to the pg module, though it might be possible already anyway, but can't tell for sure.

Any suggestion how this could look like?
