postgres-backrest

PostgreSQL image with PgBackRest preinstalled, backup-ready defaults, and flexible configuration mounts for production database operations.

Repository

postgres-backrest is a PostgreSQL image with PgBackRest preinstalled.

It gives teams backup-ready defaults. It still leaves Postgres configuration visible, because teams need to own that.

What

  • PostgreSQL + PgBackRest in one image, based on upstream postgres.
  • Backup-ready defaults, including WAL archiving support.
  • Flexible config handling through full file mounts or small conf.d overrides.
  • Multi-arch support (amd64, arm64).

How

docker run \
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword \
ethoslink/postgres-backrest:latest

For deeper tuning, mount your own postgresql.conf or set POSTGRES_CONFIG_FILE to a custom path.

Why

Most teams need sane Postgres backup behavior on day one. They also need room to tune for their own workload later.

This image gives you that middle ground.

We build focused tools for hospitality and retail teams at EthosLink. postgres-backrest is infrastructure we extracted from production work.

The goal is to keep it reusable and boring in the best way.
