To get the version of PostgreSQL that is currently running on your system, you can use the postgres command-line utility. To do this, open a terminal window and enter the following command:

1
postgres --version


This will display the version number of the PostgreSQL server that is currently running.


Alternatively, you can use the psql command-line utility to connect to a PostgreSQL database and then use the SELECT version(); SQL statement to retrieve the version number. To do this, enter the following command:

1
psql -c "SELECT version();"


This will connect to the default PostgreSQL database on your system and execute the SELECT version(); statement, which will return the version number of the PostgreSQL server.


You can also use the pg_config utility to retrieve the version number of the PostgreSQL software that is installed on your system. To do this, enter the following command:

1
pg_config --version


This will display the version number of the PostgreSQL software that is installed on your system.
