In server mode, generally - it should be accessible through browser, and hence - for security reasons, we create the user on first startup. In runtime (stand alone mode), it runs as an application. I believe - you're talking about runtime mode. Then - it's ok to share the pgadmin4.db (configuration file), but - it would be available to a particular user, as it is shared among the operating system users. pgAdmin 4 will do automatically upgrade of the configuration on next run, if some configuration has changed. So - it would safe to share the configuration file in dockers. -- Thanks, Ashesh > > Regards, > Glen >
