Create local PostgreSQL database

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



1. Initialize database: ``initdb -D /path/to/user/db``



2. If there's already a Postgres instance on the machine, it will need

   ``/path/to/user/db``) to change the database port (e.g. ``port = 5433``).



3. Start this database ``pg_ctl -D /path/to/user/db start``
