 Note: Due to a limitation in Docker, to be able to read and write into this database, make sure this mounted directory has the proper read and write permissions on the host: it can be owned by UID and GID 1000:1000, or use chmod to give permissions to everyone, for example.

+Linking with a PostgreSQL container
+-----------------------------------
+
+If you want to use a PostgreSQL database, you need to either access the host database (run the biboumi container with --network=host), or link with a [postgresql docker image](https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres/).
+
+To do that, start the PostgreSQL container like this:
+
+```
+docker run --name postgres postgres:latest
+```
+
+This will run a postgresql instance with a configured superuser named “postgres”, with no password and a database named “postgres” as well. If you want different values, please refer to the PostgreSQL’s image documentation.
+
+Then start your biboumi container, by linking with this PostgreSQL container, and by specifying the correct db_name value (of course, also specify all the other options, like the XMPP hostname and password):
+
+```
+docker run --name biboumi \
+    --link=postgres \
+    -e BIBOUMI_DB_NAME=postgres://postgres@postgres/postgres \
+    biboumi
+```
