PostGREST

PostGREST

  • Version: 11.2.0-1
  • Date: Sept 27, 2023

PostgREST is a standalone web server that allows you to access your pgEdge Postgres database cluster with RESTful API calls. It is very simple to use because the API is built on the existing structure and inherits permissions you've already defined in your PostgreSQL database. You use a simple configuration file to specify the schema objects that will be exposed through the API. While the PostgreSQL server monitors the default listener port, for libpq-styled calls to the server, the PostgREST server monitors port 3000 for API-styled calls.
