Hi, according to the docs, the database specification in the pg_hba.conf file can be read from a separate file (<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/auth-pg-hba-conf.html>: “A separate file containing database names can be specified by preceding the file name with @.”)
However, I could not find a specification of the format for this file… It appears as if simply giving each database name on a separate line does the job. Is this correct? May the file contain comments (i.e. lines starting with “#”) or empty lines? May the file be specified including a path (e.g. “@/some/path/databases”)? IMHO, it might be helpful if this information would be added to the docs. Thanks, Albrecht.
