pgAdmin4 Auto Setup Script for (Arch) Linux

This script automatically sets up pgAdmin4 in desktop mode on (Arch) Linux by:

• Rebuilding its Python virtual environment
• Downloading the required .whl package from the official PostgreSQL FTP
• Installing dependencies using pip

🚀 Usage

1. Make the script executable:

cd path/to/script
chmod +x pgadmin4-setup.sh

2. Run the script with sudo

sudo ./pgadmin4-setup.sh

This will recreate the virtual environment in /usr/pgadmin4/venv and install the required packages.

🔄 To change pgAdmin Version

The script uses version 9.2 of pgAdmin by default, to install a different version, visit https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/pgadmin/pgadmin4/ and copy the url of your desired version (e.g., v9.3) and update the script accordingly.
