-# `deadpool-postgres` + `hyper` example
-
-This example combines `deadpool-postgres` with a `hyper` webservice to
-implement a simple API service that responds with JSON read from
-PostgreSQL.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-The following instructions assumes that your current user can access the
-PostgreSQL running at local host passwordless via unix domain socket. The
-default installation of PostgreSQL usually already contains the following line
-in its [pg_hba.conf](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/auth-pg-hba-conf.html):
-
-```txt
-local all all peer
-```
-
-All you need to do is to create a PostgreSQL user with the same name as
-your system user:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u postgres createuser -s my_user_name
-```
-
-Now you should be able to run `psql` without any options and connect to
-your local running PostgreSQL instance. e.g. by connecting to `template1`:
-
-```shell
-psql template1
-```
-
-## How to run the example
-
-1. Create a database
-
-    ```shell
-    createdb deadpool
-    ```
-
-2. Load example data
-
-    ```shell
-    psql -f fixture.sql deadpool
-    ```
-
-3. Create `.env` file in this directory
-
-    ```env
-    LISTEN=[::1]:8000
-    PG__DBNAME=deadpool
-    ```
-
-4. Run the example
-
-    ```shell
-    cargo run --release
-    ```
-
-## Configuration options
-
-If you want to connect to your database using a TCP/IP socket you can use
-the following template for your `.env` file:
-
-```env
-PG__HOST=127.0.0.1
-PG__PORT=5432
-PG__USER=deadpool
-PG__PASSWORD=somepassword
-PG__DBNAME=deadpool
-```
-
-For more configuration options see `deadpool_postgres::Config`.
