createdb: Create a database owned by a specific user with a description.
$ createdb --owner=${username} ${database_name} '${description}'
try on your machine
This command is used to create a new database with specific properties.
Here's how it breaks down:
createdb
: This is the command itself, which is a utility to create a new database.--owner=${username}
: This specifies the owner of the new database.${username}
is a variable that should be replaced with the desired username. The owner will have full privileges over the database.${database_name}
: This is the name that you want to give to the new database.${database_name}
is a variable that should be replaced with the desired name.'${description}'
: This is an optional description you can provide for the database.${description}
is a variable that should be replaced with the desired description. The description is enclosed within single quotes to maintain its integrity.
To use this command, replace ${username}
with the desired username, ${database_name}
with the desired name for the new database, and optionally replace ${description}
with a description for the database.
