1
sudo apt update


  1. Next, install the necessary dependencies by running the following command:
1
sudo apt install python3-pip python3-dev libpq-dev postgresql postgresql-contrib


  1. Now, you can install pgAdmin4 using pip, the Python package manager. Run the following command to install pgAdmin4:
1
pip3 install pgadmin4


  1. After the installation is complete, create a configuration file for pgAdmin4 by running the following command:

import os
DATA_DIR = os.path.realpath(os.path.expanduser(u'~/.pgadmin/'))
LOG_FILE = os.path.join(DATA_DIR, 'pgadmin4.log')
SQLITE_PATH = os.path.join(DATA_DIR, 'pgadmin4.db')
SESSION_DB_PATH = os.path.join(DATA_DIR, 'sessions')
STORAGE_DIR = os.path.join(DATA_DIR, 'storage')
SERVER_MODE = False


  1. Create the necessary directories by running the following command:
1
mkdir ~/.pgadmin


  1. Finally, start the pgAdmin4 server by running the following command:

This will start the pgAdmin4 server on your local machine. You can then access it by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:5050.
