could not create user \"app-new_public_owner\": pq: syntax error at or near \"-\"'

[hvp1991]

Please, answer some short questions which should help us to understand your problem / question better?

• Which image of the operator are you using? e.g. zalando/postgres-operator:v1.11.0
• Where do you run it - cloud or metal? Kubernetes or OpenShift? Bare K8s
• Are you running Postgres Operator in production? [yes | no] Yes
• Type of issue? [Bug report, question, feature request, etc.], Bug Report / Question

We are using zalando operator, However when we try to create database with special character in name (to be specific hyphen -), we do notice some errors in operator logs! In this example you can find db name is app-new

I do see credentials are getting created in zalando , However while syncing roles it gives specifically following error while creating role, The strange part is app-new_owner role and app-new_owner_user user got created but fails with reader, writer roles and users!

As per the code base special characters are allowed since queries are used with special character..!!

For database names we have a regexp in place which does not allow hivens. Unfortunately, the PR to make it configurable got stuck at some point.

About user creation failing, I think this part (and admin template) of the SQL command does not take special characters into account. Should be easy to fix.

[hvp1991]

Thanks @FxKu for the response, Just wanted to confirm the PR to make it configurable would also support special chars in database names (i.e hyphen -). Also Can we make sure when we have special character in database name all the following process / operations (user creation, role creation and any other things) would support the same and sql command is compatible as well using double quotes..
