# ezhst db create

Create the project's Postgres database.

## Usage

```
ezhst db create <name>
```

Each project has one database.

## In scripts and agents

Add `--json` to read the result from stdout. Progress goes to stderr. On failure the process exits with code 1 and prints `{"error": "..."}`. Without a TTY the CLI never prompts, so pass every value as a flag.

```
npx ezhst db create --json
```
