const pathConfigConnectionHelpSyn = `
Configure the connection string to talk to PostgreSQL.
`

const pathConfigConnectionHelpDesc = `
This path configures the connection string used to connect to PostgreSQL.
The value of the string can be a URL, or a PG style string in the
format of "user=foo host=bar" etc.

The URL looks like:
"postgresql://user:pass@host:port/dbname"

When configuring the connection string, the backend will verify its validity.
