Use this service

Use this service through one of the Wodby application stacks listed above, or reference postgres from a custom Wodby stack.

A service is a reusable component and does not deploy by itself. The stack defines its links, settings, versions, resources, and relationship to the rest of the application.

Optional pgvector capability

The PostgreSQL 18 image includes pgvector, but the service does not enable any database extension by default. Stacks that require pgvector can add vector to POSTGRES_DB_EXTENSIONS; the configured extensions are created in both the initial database and databases provisioned through Wodby.

Maintain a custom version

1. Fork this repository.
2. Edit the service manifest and referenced files.
3. Import the repository as a Git-backed service.
4. Reference the service from a stack manifest.

Keep service, workload, container, endpoint, link, volume, config, and derivative names stable unless dependent stacks and app-level overrides are updated at the same time.

Validate the manifests with:

wodby service validate-manifest service.yml --org <org-id>

See the service manifest reference and the managed services index.
