The postgres_group module is used to create and manage Postgres groups.

database username if different from config or default
user password if any password for a specified user
Database host if different from config or default
Database port if different from config or default
Ensure that the named group is present with the specified privileges
Please note that the user/group notion in postgresql is just abstract, we
have roles, where users can be seen as roles with the LOGIN
privilege
and groups the others.

How the password should be stored.
If encrypted is None
, True
, or md5
, it will use
PostgreSQL's MD5 algorithm.
If encrypted is False
, it will be stored in plaintext.
If encrypted is scram-sha-256
, it will use the algorithm described
in RFC 7677.
Changed in version 3003: Prior versions only supported True
and False
Should the group have login perm
Should the group inherit permissions
Should the new group be a "superuser"
Should the new group be allowed to initiate streaming replication
The group's password. It can be either a plain string or a pre-hashed password:
'md5{MD5OF({password}{role}}'
'SCRAM-SHA-256${iterations}:{salt}${stored_key}:{server_key}'
If encrypted is not False
, then the password will be converted
to the appropriate format above, if not already. As a consequence,
passwords that start with "md5" or "SCRAM-SHA-256" cannot be used.
Password refresh flag
Boolean attribute to specify whether to password comparison check should be performed.
If refresh_password is True
, the password will be automatically
updated without extra password change check.
This behaviour makes it possible to execute in environments without superuser access available, e.g. Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL
