Accessing PostgreSQL on Lab Computer
In order to access PostgreSQL on the lab computer run the following command.
sudo -u control_tower psql

The postgres super user of the psql server has the following login credentials:
user: postgres
password: lab computer password
The only user that has super user access on the lab computer's postgreSQL database. In order to allow the API to connect to the database and have read/write permissions, the postgres user must be used. As such, the credentials saved on the computer use postgres with the password lists above.
Postgres user hosts all the tables for the weather boxes in the lab. To see the tables run the command \dt to show all database tables.
To get to the example bears api table use the following commands after logging in as any user.
\c bears;
SELECT * FROM BEARS;
