[Improvement]: Container databases for local runs of projects with db resources receive a random host port
Describe the improvement
Starting locally projects that use resources like shared-db
or aws-rds
will spin up associated databases in docker containers, if not using local_uri
. The setup maps the container's internal database port to a host port which is picked randomly. This is causing a few problems to users who rely on a standard db connection string set in an environment variable since they don't get a guarantee for the same host port and same connection strings between consecutive runs (with the db container deleted in between) or when starting the project with a version-controlled dev environment on another machine.
We want to fix this by enabling users to pick their host port when doing cargo shuttle run
or enforce the port through the code.

I would love this feature! I've been developing with Shuttle in a Rust Dev Container: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-dev-containers/tree/main/containers/rust-postgres
but when I try to use the shuttle_shared_db::Postgres I run into this issue!
