Connecting New Database

[MLemke24]

I am following the quick start guide to set up a Hasura instance with Docker. I took the PG_DATABASE_URL they recommend since I dont have a database setup but I get this error everytime:

[
{
"definition": "golfdatatracker",
"message": "could not translate host name "postgres" to address: Temporary failure in name resolution\n",
"name": "source golfdatatracker",
"reason": "Inconsistent object: connection error",
"type": "source"
}
]

The URL I am using: PG_DATABASE_URL: postgres://postgres:postgrespassword@postgres:5432/postgres which is the recommendation.

Am I doing something wrong?

After running the docker, do you see a container running named "postgres" ?

Yeah the docker image seems to be running fine: [image: Screen Shot 2022-12-08 at 4.03.37 PM.png] However I just get this error no matter what i do: [image: Screen Shot 2022-12-08 at 4.03.26 PM.png] Could it possibly be due to the fact that I am running this on an M1 Macbook?

Somehow, I am unable to see the screenshots that you attached to your last post.
What is the version of the Hasura GraphQL engine you are using ?
Also, please share your docker-compose.yaml file (redact any sensitive info there), so we can troubleshoot.
