问题
I use tableplus for my general admin.
Currently using the docker postgres image at 10.3 for both production and localhost development.
Because tableplus upgraded their postgres 10 drivers to 10.5, I can no longer use pg_restore to restore the backup files which are dumped using 10.5 --format=custom
See image for how I backup using tableplus. And how it uses 10.5 driver
The error message I get is pg_restore: [archiver] unsupported version (1.14) in file header
What i tried
I tried in localhost to simply change the tag for postgres in my dockerfile from 10.3 to 10.5 and it didn't work
original dockerfile
FROM postgres:10.3
COPY ./maintenance /usr/local/bin/maintenance
RUN chmod +x /usr/local/bin/maintenance/*
RUN mv /usr/local/bin/maintenance/* /usr/local/bin \
&& rmdir /usr/local/bin/maintenance
to
FROM postgres:10.5
COPY ./maintenance /usr/local/bin/maintenance
RUN chmod +x /usr/local/bin/maintenance/*
RUN mv /usr/local/bin/maintenance/* /usr/local/bin \
&& rmdir /usr/local/bin/maintenance
My host system for development is macOS.
I have many existing databases and schemas in my development docker postgres. So I am currently stumped as to how to upgrade safely without destroying old data.
Can advise?
Also I think a long term is to figure out how to have data files outside the docker (i.e. inside my host system) so that everytime I want to upgrade my docker image for postgres I can do so safely without fear.
I like to ask about how to switch to such a setup as well.
回答1:
If I understand you correctly, you want to restore a custom format dump taken with 10.5 into a 10.3 database.
That won't be possible if the archive format has changed between 10.3 and 10.5.
As a workaround, you could use a “plain format” dump (option --format=plain) which does not have an “archive version”. But any problems during restore are yours to deal with, since downgrading PostgreSQL isn't supported.
You should always use the same version for development and production, and you should always use the latest minor release (currently 10.13). Everything else is asking for trouble.
- backup as plain text like this: warning! the file will be huge. Around 17x more than regular custom format. My typical 90mb is now 1.75Gb
- copy the backup file into the postgres container
docker cp ~/path/to/dump/in-host-system/2020-07-08-1.dump <name_of_postgres_container>:/backups - go to the bash of your postgres container
docker exec -it <name_of_postgres_container> bash - inside the bash of postgres container:
psql -U username -d dbname < backups/2020-07-08-1.dump
That will work
