STEAMPIPE_DATABASE_START_TIMEOUT

The maximum time (in seconds) to wait for the Postgres process to start accepting queries after it has been started. The default is 30.

Note that STEAMPIPE_DATABASE_START_TIMEOUT is ignored if the database goes into recovery mode upon startup -- Steampipe will wait indefinitely for recovery to complete. This can be cancelled with Ctrl+C.

Usage

Set database start timeout to 5 minutes:

export STEAMPIPE_DATABASE_START_TIMEOUT=300
