How to connect from docker-compose to Host Postgre

问题:

I have a server with installed PostgreSQL. All my services work in containers (docker-compose). I want to use my Host PostgreSQL from containers. Buy I have the error:

  Unable to obtain Jdbc connection from DataSource (jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/shop-bd) for user 'shop-bd-user': Connection to localhost:5432 refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.

  Message    : Connection to localhost:5432 refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.

  Connection to localhost:5432 refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.
  Connection refused (Connection refused)

My docker-compose is using host network_mode, like this:

version: '3'
services:
  shop:  
    container_name: shop
    build: ./shop
    hostname: shop
    restart: always   
    ports:
      - 8084:8084
    network_mode: "host"

My database connection URL is: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/shop-bd

According to the document, from version 18.03 onwards, using host.docker.internal as DNS works for me, without specifying neither --net=host or network_mode: "host"

This would have worked if you were on linux OS. But this won't work on Mac or Windows. The thing is that when you use --net=host, you still are not on host network. That is the limitation of how docker for windows work

Instead of localhost you need to use docker.for.win.localhost as the host. This is a special DNS name which is available on Docker for Windows when you want to refer to the host localhost

Cautionary note: using the --net=host, or network_mode: "host" will prevent your container from registering with Eureka and will break any kind of API gateway you've got unless they all run on the same network.

1) ensure that your postgresql instance is listening to all addresses and not only localhost.

In postgresql.conf set listen_addresses as follows:

listen_addresses='*'

2) you are trying to connect from your container to localhost:5432 . That is NOT your host's IP address, but the address of your container's loopback device. You need to use your docker bridge IP address instead.
