I created this library to work with different version of Docker Postgres without having the need to change my Postgres client.

To install and use it type the command below:

pip install docker-postgres-client

You will then have four new commands available in your shell: dpsql, dcreatedb, ddropdb, and dpg_dump. They allow you to connect, create, drop, dump, and import a database. If you want to add additional features feel free to fork this repository and make a merge request.

All the bash command have -C (container) option that you can use like below:

dpsql -c CONTAINER_NAME -U user_name

Last but not least all the scripts contain a useful help message to know how to use them.

dpsql --help
