PostgreSQL client in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own postgresql-client package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so PostgreSQL client should behave as it does on a Linux PC. The package itself has no program of its own: the commands below come from the packages it brings in, and you run them by typing them in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, with no Desktop or Floating session needed.

Commands it gives you

  • psql
  • pg_dump

Type one in Breadstick's Terminal to run it.

There is no systemd in Breadstick, so a database server does not start on its own: you start it by hand from the Terminal, and keep its data in your Linux home folder. Command line clients reach servers on the device or across the network. More in the docs: What Breadstick cannot do: the system itself.

About PostgreSQL client

From Debian's package description

This metapackage always depends on the currently supported database client package for PostgreSQL.

PostgreSQL is a fully featured object-relational database management system. It supports a large part of the SQL standard and is designed to be extensible by users in many aspects. Some of the features are: ACID transactions, foreign keys, views, sequences, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions, outer joins, multiversion concurrency control. Graphical user interfaces and bindings for many programming languages are available as well.

From Debian's description of the postgresql-client package, under that package's license.
