Hey everyone! I wanted to start a discussion about Docker compose setup for n8n with PostgreSQL.

What are your thoughts and experiences? I'd love to hear how others in the community are handling this.

The benefits of using Docker compose are huge - it makes it so much easier to manage and scale your workflow. Plus, it's way easier to share your setup with others and collaborate.

Thanks for the tip! I was using an older image and that was probably the cause of my issues. I'll make sure to update to the latest one 👍

Great tip! I've been looking for a good way to get n8n and PostgreSQL working together with Docker.

I've been using a similar setup for months now, and it's been a game changer. The key is to make sure your Docker compose file is configured correctly to handle the PostgreSQL connection.

I've been using Docker compose for a while now, and one thing I've learned is to make sure you're using the correct PostgreSQL image. I've had issues with some of the older images not working correctly with n8n.

I'm new to n8n and Docker, but I'm excited to try this out. Can someone explain the benefits of using Docker compose over just running n8n and PostgreSQL separately?

Can you share an example of your Docker compose file? I'm having some issues getting the PostgreSQL connection to work and I'd love to compare notes.
