## PostgreSQL user
User should **only** have SELECT right on tables. You can create one as follows:
```sql
-- Create a group
CREATE ROLE readaccess;
-- Grant access to existing tables
GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA public TO readaccess;
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO readaccess;
-- Grant access to future tables
ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES IN SCHEMA public GRANT SELECT ON TABLES TO readaccess;
-- Create a final user with password
CREATE USER <user> WITH PASSWORD '<pw>';
GRANT readaccess TO <user>;
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO <user>;
```
Make sure to edit /etc/postgresql/10/main/pg_hba.conf line
`local all all peer`
to
`local all all md5`
