Log to stdout/stderr
We run postgres deployment from OpenShift service catalog on RH PSI. The postgres container logs to files which makes it harder/not straightforward to check what's going on in the OpenShift (its expected all services report logs to stdout/stderr). Would it be possible to adjust the configuration option of PG so that it logs to stdout/stderr?
Few thoughts:
I've checked that mysql container logs to stderr by default.
There is already a generic way how to change any config parameter (and an example shows exactly changing the log destination: https://github.com/sclorg/postgresql-container/blob/master/examples/extending-image/postgresql-cfg/s2i-extending.conf).
While we cannot probably change the default behaviour of PostgreSQL, it makes sense to me to allow to do that easily, probably more easier than bind-mounting a config file or building a new layer as shown in extending-image/postgresql-cfg.
So, this PR is an attempt to make it more straightforward, but setting -e POSTGRESQL_LOG_DESTINATION=/dev/stderr.
@UncleAlbie @pkubatrh @phracek What do you think?
The mentioned feature(POSTGRESQL_LOG_DESTINATION=/dev/stderr) was already added by https://github.com/sclorg/postgresql-container/pull/366.
