Is there a way for local Seatable to connect to external database?

[semighoti]

Hi guys,

I have installed Seatable on my local server. I have couple questions about self-host service.

1. Can I use other database, such as Postgres, for the Seatable?

2. I am current using MariaDB locally. Can I replace the local one and connect to an external MariaDB from a remote server?

Thanks

Yes, this is possible, but not officially supported.

Thanks for the quick response @rdb

1. how about MySQL? Just want to be clear.

2. Is there a document instructing how to connect to an external database? That would be great if there is one.

Thanks

This should work.

Not officially supported. Hence no official document.
