If you want to inspect your pgvector container to explore your storage or knowledge base, you can use TablePlus. Follow these steps:

​
Step 1: Start Your pgvector Container

Run the following command to start a pgvector container locally: 
docker run -d \
  -e POSTGRES_DB=ai \
  -e POSTGRES_USER=ai \
  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=ai \
  -e PGDATA=/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata \
  -v pgvolume:/var/lib/postgresql/data \
  -p 5532:5432 \
  --name pgvector \
  agno/pgvector:16
  • POSTGRES_DB=ai sets the default database name.
  • POSTGRES_USER=ai and POSTGRES_PASSWORD=ai define the database credentials.
  • The container exposes port 5432 (mapped to 5532 on your local machine).

​
Step 2: Configure TablePlus

  1. Open TablePlus: Launch the TablePlus application.
  2. Create a New Connection: Click on the + icon to add a new connection.
  3. Select PostgreSQL: Choose PostgreSQL as the database type.
Fill in the following connection details:
  • Host: localhost
  • Port: 5532
  • Database: ai
  • User: ai
  • Password: ai
