Greetings.

Is there a way to find out the compiled-in port number?

I can parse `pg_config` output to check out port in cases port was
actually specified.

However if defaults had been used, is there any tool that will tell me
the magic 5432 number
or should I silently stick to this number in my scripts?

Not sure if this is what you want?:


This from Postgres 9.0.7.

test=> SELECT current_setting('port');
 current_setting
-----------------
 5432

test=> SELECT inet_server_port();
 inet_server_port
------------------
             5432

Be aware for inet_server_port() to work you have to connect in a method other than Unix local socket. In other words something like:

psql -d test -U aklaver -h localhost
