 How to connect DBeaver to PostgreSQL db in Docker

DBeaver is a popular and free database client that makes it easier for users to manage different databases from a single software tool. Furthermore, it works with several databases, like MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQLite, etc.

We can easily connect DBeaver to a PostgreSQL database running in Docker with a few easy steps:

1. First, start the PostgreSQL container that is running the database. This is done via the docker run command.
2. Next, we have to open DBeaver and click the New Database Connection button on the toolbar.
3. Then, select PostgreSQL as the database type.
4. At this point, we have to head to the PostgreSQL Connection Settings tab and configure the connection settings for the PostgreSQL database running in Docker. This includes:
   • Host
   • Port
   • Database
   • Username
   • Password
5. Then, click the Test Connection button to test the connection. At this point, DBeaver will display a message indicating whether the connection was successful.
6. If the above steps were successful, click the Finish button to save the connection.

After the above steps, we can manage the PostgreSQL database running in Docker.

Connecting DBeaver to a PostgreSQL container is a simple process that can be done quickly and easily.
