Add guide for custom pg_hba.conf rules via configSecret - #1048
Conversation
Documents the user_hba.conf configSecret key introduced by kubedb/postgres-init-docker (splice point in the generated pg_hba.conf) and kubedb/postgres (optional projection into /etc/config): where the rules land relative to the generated rules and why (first-match-wins), the reload-vs-restart difference between PostgreSQL >= 16 and <= 15, and the pod-network allow + reject pattern that keeps pg-coordinator's peer connections working.

substitute every cluster-specific Pod CIDR, including IPv4 and IPv6 ranges for

types: replace each host(ssl) entry with either host or hostssl, consistently
preserving the intended SSL behavior.
- Around line 38-39: Update the PostgreSQL configuration guidance to require a

that updates and restarts all related pods, or document reloading and verifying
every pod before failover instead of relying on pg_reload_conf() against a
single replica.
- Around line 95-97: Update the kubectl exec psql command to include explicit
PostgreSQL connection parameters using -U for the intended user and -d for the

PostgreSQL 16 pg_hba.conf valid connection types host hostssl documentation
💡 Result:
In PostgreSQL 16, the pg_hba.conf file defines connection types to control client access [1]. The host and hostssl types are both used for TCP/IP connections, but they differ in their requirement for SSL encryption [1]: host: This connection type matches connection attempts made using TCP/IP, regardless of whether the connection is encrypted with SSL, encrypted with GSSAPI, or unencrypted [1]. It acts as a general catch-all for TCP/IP-based connections [1]. hostssl: This connection type matches connection attempts made using TCP/IP only when the connection is established with SSL encryption [1]. For this to function, the PostgreSQL server must be built with SSL support and the ssl configuration parameter must be enabled in postgresql.conf [1]. If these conditions are not met, a hostssl record is ignored (except for a logged warning) because it cannot match any connections [1]. These connection types are part of the client authentication configuration, where PostgreSQL evaluates records in order and stops at the first match [1]. If no record matches a connection attempt, access is denied [1].
Citations:
Replace host(ssl) with a valid HBA record type.
Use host or hostssl in all four entries. host(ssl) is not valid pg_hba.conf syntax.

PostgreSQL 17 pg_ctl reload command syntax official documentation
💡 Result:
According to the official PostgreSQL 17 documentation, the syntax for the pg_ctl reload command is [1]: pg_ctl reload [-D datadir] [-s] The reload mode sends a SIGHUP signal to the postgres server process, which instructs the server to reread its configuration files (such as postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf) without requiring a full server restart [1][2]. Options: -D datadir: Specifies the file system location of the database configuration files. If this is omitted, the PGDATA environment variable is used [1]. -s: Runs in silent mode, suppressing informational messages and only outputting errors [1].

KubeDB PostgreSQL custom configuration secret pg_hba.conf replicas reload behavior configuration.secretName
💡 Result:
In KubeDB, custom PostgreSQL configurations, including changes to pg_hba.conf, are managed via the spec.configSecret field in the Postgres CR [1][2]. KubeDB mounts this secret as a volume, typically referenced by PostgreSQL's include_if_exists directive within its primary configuration [1]. Regarding the behavior of applying changes and reloading: 1. Applying Changes: Updating the configuration secret directly does not automatically trigger a reload of the database configuration across replicas [3]. To apply changes, you must use a PostgresOpsRequest CR of type Reconfigure [4][3]. 2. Reload/Restart Behavior: When a PostgresOpsRequest is processed, the KubeDB Ops-manager operator manages the update process [3]. This process typically involves replacing or merging the configuration and performing a restart of the database pods (PetSet pods) to ensure the new configuration is applied [3]. 3. Reloading without Restart: While PostgreSQL itself supports reloading certain configurations via pg_reload_conf, KubeDB's standard reconfiguration workflow via PostgresOpsRequest is designed to perform a restart to guarantee the application of the new configuration [3]. If you are using GitOps, updating the configSecret reference in your GitOps-managed Postgres CR will automatically trigger the creation of a Reconfigure OpsRequest by the GitOps operator [5].

site:postgresql.org/docs/17 pg_reload_conf reloads configuration file current server
💡 Result:
The pg_reload_conf function in PostgreSQL is a SQL-callable function that instructs the PostgreSQL server to reload its configuration files [1][2]. When executed, pg_reload_conf sends a SIGHUP signal to the main server process (postmaster) [1]. The main process then propagates this signal to all child server processes, causing the entire cluster to reread configuration files such as postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf, and others [1][2][3]. Key details regarding pg_reload_conf: 1. Effect: Existing sessions will adopt the new configuration values after they complete any currently executing client command [2]. 2. Limitations: Parameters that can only be set at server start (often called static parameters) will not be updated by this command; they require a full server restart to take effect [2][4]. 3. Error Handling: If the configuration files contain invalid parameter settings, the server will ignore those specific invalid settings and log the errors during the reload process [2]. 4. Best Practices: Before running pg_reload_conf, you can verify the validity of your configuration changes using the pg_file_settings view, which highlights potential errors or settings that cannot be applied [1][5]. Running pg_reload_conf is functionally equivalent to executing pg_ctl reload from the command line or sending a SIGHUP signal directly to the main server process [1][2][4][3].

Replace the hard-coded Pod CIDR with cluster-specific values.
10.42.0.0/16 is not a universal Kubernetes Pod CIDR. Pod ranges are provider-specific, and clusters can use IPv6 or dual-stack networking. Require users to replace this value with every actual Pod CIDR before applying the Secret. Otherwise, the reject rules can block coordinator connections and failover. (kubernetes.io)

PostgreSQL psql -c default user database operating system user documentation
💡 Result:
When connecting to PostgreSQL using the psql client, the default values for the database user and the target database are determined as follows: 1. Default PostgreSQL User: If no user is specified via the -U command-line option or the PGUSER environment variable, psql defaults to using the name of the current operating system (OS) user [1][2][3]. 2. Default Database: If no database name is specified on the command line or via the PGDATABASE environment variable, psql defaults to using the current database user name [4][3]. It is important to note that PostgreSQL database roles and operating system users are conceptually separate entities [1][2][5]. While many applications, including psql, default to assuming a correspondence between the two, this is not a technical requirement [1][2][5]. To override these defaults, you can use: - Command-line flags (e.g., psql -U username -d dbname) [1][5]. - Environment variables (e.g., PGUSER, PGDATABASE) [6][7]. - Connection service files (~/.pg_service.conf), which allow you to group multiple connection parameters together under a service name [8][7]. For security best practices, avoid routinely connecting as the superuser (typically named 'postgres') [8]. Instead, create individual database roles for your tasks [1][8].
