PostgreSQL

storage:
  postgres:
    host: 127.0.0.1
    port: 5432
    database: authelia
    username: authelia
    # Password can also be set using a secret: https://docs.authelia.com/configuration/secrets.html
    password: mypassword
    sslmode: disable

IPv6 Addresses

If utilising an IPv6 literal address it must be enclosed by square brackets and quoted:

host: "[fd00:1111:2222:3333::1]"

SSL Mode

SSL mode configures how to handle SSL connections with Postgres. Valid options are 'disable', 'require', 'verify-ca', or 'verify-full'. See the PostgreSQL Documentation or pgx - PostgreSQL Driver and Toolkit Documentation for more information.

Loading a password from a secret instead of inside the configuration

Password can also be defined using a secret.
