How can I change the Database Provider to PostgreSql in Volo Docs ? Changing only the connection string to equivalent postgresql connection string isn't working. Please guide for the same if any other steps are needed to be performed.

    Hi, please see the Switch to EF Core PostgreSQL Provider documentation. I went through the documentation you suggested but it requires Entity Framework Core .cs file which I won't be having in template downloaded to setup from https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Apps/VoloDocs

    VoloDocs is a self-contained application, which only can be run without modification of code (you can think it as a sample application. So, if you want to use the Docs Module of ABP Framework and change the database provider as PostgreSQL, you need to create a template with PostgreSQL as database provider and then add the Docs Module to your application:

    1-) Creating a template with PostgreSQL as database provider :

    abp new Acme.BookStore --database-management-system PostgreSQL
    

    2-) Add Docs Module into your application:

    abp add-module Volo.Docs
    

    Then, you can use the Docs Module with PostgreSQL. But as i said, it's not possible with self-contained VoloDocs application.
