Common Mistakes

Using 'latest' tag which may not be stable

Using 'beta' tag which is for testing

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a different port number that is not mapped correctly

Not exposing the port at all

Port 5432 is the default Postgres port and should be exposed to the same port on the host.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the container path instead of host path for volume

Using the default port 5432 when it may be in use

The volume mount uses the custom directory /custom/pgdata and the host port is set to 5433 to avoid conflicts.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to set environment variables for Supabase's JWT secret, API key, and database URL.

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"supersecretjwt"

B"apikey123"

C"postgres://user:pass@localhost:5432/dbname"

Dsupersecretjwt

💡 Hint
