Hi,

I want to set the **temporal** in a **non-docker format** and use a customised database like Postgres. Can someone help me with this?

I have already gone through the temporal-CLI but it doesn’t give me the customized database.

Regards,  
Debolina

We lack documentation about such a setup. Your best option is to reverse engineer it from the docker. The Temporal service is a go binary that starts with the appropriate command line flags and configuration files.
