pscale shell now supports Postgres databases

August 15, 2025

The pscale shell command now works with Postgres databases! Postgres connections use psql to connect directly to your database with no local proxy required.

New features include:

• --replica flag to connect to read-only replicas
• --role flag supporting reader, writer, readwriter, and admin roles
• Direct connection to port :5432 for optimal performance (bypassing the pooler)

This enhancement makes it even easier to interact with your Postgres databases directly from the command line.
