To create a Database instance targeting Postgres use

Note: .NET Core / 5 requires the 3rd parameter to be used in the constructor as below.

new Database("host=localhost;user id=postgres;password=password;database=mydb", DatabaseType.PostgreSQL, Npgsql.NpgsqlFactory.Instance);

The following can only be used with NPoco < 5 on .NET Framework

new Database("host=localhost;user id=postgres;password=password;database=mydb", DatabaseType.PostgreSQL);

You need to install npgsql v2.x (from nuget or manually) and add the following to your app.config/web.config.

<system.data>
    <DbProviderFactories>
      <add name="Npgsql Data Provider"
           invariant="Npgsql2"
           support="FF"
           description=".Net Framework Data Provider for Postgresql Server"
           type="Npgsql.NpgsqlFactory, Npgsql, Version=2.2.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=5d8b90d52f46fda7" />
