Your application schemaSpy has to compose an URL (and optionally some
properties may be set) that is compatible with postgresql.conf and
pg_hba.conf.
The usual URL is "IP Address:port number/database name".
So the IP address is the same as what you have in pg_hba.conf and the
port number as specified in the postgresql.conf being used by the
relevant postmaster process. If you want to run different versions of
Postgres they need to use unique port numbers for each version.
