Use this when Amazon gives you an "Encoded authorization failure message" and you need to turn it into something readable. If you only get a request id... you're out of luck.
function decode-authorization-failure-message {
if [ $# -ne 1 ] || [ "$1" = -h ] || [ "$1" = --help ]; then
cat <<'EOT'
Usage: decode-authorization-failure-message <message>

PostgreSQL command line cheatsheet

PSQL

Magic words:

psql -U postgres

Some interesting flags (to see all, use -h or --help depending on your psql version):

  • -E: will describe the underlaying queries of the \ commands (cool for learning!)
  • -l: psql will list all databases and then exit (useful if the user you connect with doesn't has a default database, like at AWS RDS)

1. Ich denke, also ist es nicht XGH.
In XGH wird nicht gedacht, es wird das erste gemacht, was in den Sinn kommt. Es gibt auch keine zweite Option, die erste ist schneller.
2. Es gibt 3 Wege ein Problem zu lösen: den richtigen Weg, den falschen Weg und den XGH Weg, welcher exakt wie der falsche ist, aber schneller.
