Install PostgreSQL You'll need a modern copy of the database running on your system, either natively or in a Docker instance. We require PostgreSQL 9.3 or greater, but recommend at least 9.5 for row-level security features that we'll use in future tutorials.

- Postico is a modern Postgres client for OSX, built by the same developer who built Postgres.app (mentioned above). It is free, but you can buy a license to unlock additional power features. This is the GUI that I use to manage Postgres because it is built specifically for Mac and has a beautiful, very easy to use (but powerful) UI.
Postgres.app

- Host: localhost
- Port: 5432
- User: your user name
- Password: blank

Firewalls & Internet Filters
Some protection products interfere with TCP connections. For example, a product named X3 Protect has been known to block connection attempts to local PostgreSQL servers. If you are having trouble connecting to a local PostgreSQL server, try disabling your firewall, or add an exception for port 5432.
'Resolving localhost failed'
This error message usually appears when there is a problem with the /etc/hosts file. Make sure there is an entry for localhost. As a workaround, you can also type '127.0.0.1' into the host field instead of 'localhost'.
TCP vs. Socket connections
There are two ways to connect to a local PostgreSQL server:
- Using a TCP connection (localhost, 127.0.0.1, ::1)
- Using a Unix socket connection (/tmp/.s.PGSQL)
Postico always uses TCP connections. Postico can't use socket connections because sandboxed apps are not allowed to access unix sockets outside their sandbox.

By default, PostgreSQL is always configured to listen for TCP connections on localhost, so that should not be a problem unless you explicitly disabled TCP connections.
