Port 5432 is hard-coded in a number of places in the Aerie codebase. This makes it difficult to deploy Aerie on the same machine that's running another instance of postgres.

Describe the feature request

The database port environment variable should be used consistently across all services.

Research direction

Search the Aerie codebase for hard-coded uses of port 5432 and identify how the database port environment variable is supplied to each service. Done means every service consistently uses that variable and Aerie can run against PostgreSQL on a non-default port.
