Find the host name and port using PSQL commands

Question

I have PSQL running, and am trying to get a perl application connecting to the database. Is there a command to find the current port and host that the database is running on

Answer 1

This command will give you postgres port number

 \conninfo

If postgres is running on Linux server, you can also use the following command

sudo netstat -plunt |grep postgres

OR (if it comes as postmaster)

sudo netstat -plunt |grep postmaster

and you will see something similar as this

tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:5432          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      140/postgres
tcp6       0      0 ::1:5432                :::*                    LISTEN      140/postgres

in this case, port number is 5432 which is also default port number
