Railway postgres env is quite different from what I intend to use as per my company styleguide

Hello I noticed that with Railway postgres we have envs like PGHOST PGPORT. Is there a way to change it to something like POSTGRES_HOST and so on. Of course I could just reassign the envs but this won't work for PR builds

Which is really bad. It does not make my code platform agnostic Any helpers here. it's a huge blocker because I have to remove the implementation above. Thank you

Well, postgres generally uses the PG<whatever> variables as a standard, so you should probably use those. However, you can add variables to the Environment Variables tab of your Railway services to fix it. e.g.: 
POSTGRES_HOST=${PGHOST}
POSTGRES_PORT=${PGPORT}
POSTGRES_USER=${PGUSER}
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=${PGPASSWORD}
POSTGRES_DB=${PGDATABASE}
POSTGRES_HOST=${PGHOST}
POSTGRES_PORT=${PGPORT}
POSTGRES_USER=${PGUSER}
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=${PGPASSWORD}
POSTGRES_DB=${PGDATABASE}

That's easier than I thought! I'd try it out ${PGHOST} as a string should get the right value yeah?

It should, if I recall correctly.
