📄 Description

Changelog Entry

Description

When using Postgresql as database, there can be conflicts between reserved keywords like "user" and the table names, e.g. "user". I have described this in this issue. To fix this problem, I added the option to set DATABASE_SCHEMA as an environment variable, that sets a default schema to use for all tables for the internal database.

Added

The options to use the environment variable DATABASE_SCHEMA. This sets a default schema in the sqlalchemy ORM definition using the MetaData class described here.

Additional information

I have also made a PR updating the docs.
