NAME

pg_conftool - read and edit PostgreSQL cluster configuration files

SYNOPSIS

pg_conftool [ options ] [ version cluster ] [ configfile ] command

DESCRIPTION

pg_conftool allows showing and setting parameters in PostgreSQL configuration files.

If version cluster is omitted, it defaults to the default cluster (see user_clusters (5) and postgresqlrc (5)). If configfile is omitted, it defaults to postgresql.conf . configfile can also be a path, in which case version cluster is ignored.

OPTIONS

-b , --boolean

Format boolean value as on or off (not for "show all").

-s , --short

Show only the value (instead of key = value pair).

-v , --verbose

Verbose output.

--help

Print help.

COMMANDS

show parameter | all

Show a parameter, or all present in this config file.

set parameter value

Set or update a parameter.

remove parameter

Remove (comment out) a parameter from a config file.

edit

Open the config file in an editor. Unless $EDITOR is set, vi is used.

SEE ALSO

user_clusters (5), postgresqlrc (5)
