[Qgis-user] PyQGIS to add PostGIS raster layer?

Thank you for your response Yann,
I tried your idea in the QGIS Python Console in both 3.10.5 and 3.12.2.
I was able to create a one part connection string URI by copying the details from a manually added raster. Note that the two step layer addition procedure causes QGIS to crash. The one step iface method does not work either but at least it does not crash QGIS:
uri = QgsDataSourceUri("PG: dbname='my_database' host=my:host:address port=5432 sslmode=verify-full mode=2 schema='public' column='rast' table='my_raster_table'")uri.setConnection(' my:host:address', '5432', 'my_database', 'my_user_name', None, QgsDataSourceUri.SslVerifyFull, 'my_qgis_authentication_id')rlayer = iface.addRasterLayer(uri.uri(False), "my layer label", "postgres") # one step add
That resulted in the following:

Sorry, I read too fast. Didn't see it was about raster layers.
But here is a clue : load the raster layer manually, then look at the
tooltip appearing when you hover the cursor on the layer. It will
contain the connection string.
