Create a Superuser in postgres
Solved with:
sudo -u postgres createuser -s -i -d -r -l -w <<username>>
sudo -u postgres psql -c "ALTER ROLE <<username>> WITH PASSWORD '<<password>>';"
I know is not an elegant solution, but for now it'll do ð
Do it in a single statement within psql
:
CREATE ROLE username WITH LOGIN SUPERUSER PASSWORD 'password';
e.g
CREATE ROLE dummy WITH LOGIN SUPERUSER PASSWORD '123456';
For PostgreSQL versions 8.1 and newer
To create a superuser:
CREATE USER username SUPERUSER;
If you need to specify the password:
CREATE USER username WITH SUPERUSER PASSWORD 'passwordstring';
