### configuration

```yaml
socket:
  name         : 'socket'
  user         : 'postgres'
  database     : 'postgres'

tcp:
  name         : 'tcp'
  user         : 'postgres'
  database     : 'postgres'
  host         : 'localhost'
  port         : 5432
```

When no configuration file is found, module tries to connect to TCP/IP socket: `localhost:5432`.
