...but I still have to configure postgresql database. All I have done is installing postgre sql ver 10 on my system.
Tom Slee in his help file says:

Installing and upgrading the database schema
The airbnb.py script works with a PostgreSQL database. You need to have the PostGIS extension installed. The schema is in

the file postgresql/schema_current.sql. You need to run that file to create the database tables to start with (assuming

both your user and database are named airbnb).

For example, if you use psql:

psql --user airbnb airbnb < postgresql/schema_current.sql
Preparing to run a survey
To check that you can connect to the database, run

python airbnb.py -dbp

I'm not able to find the schema_current.sql file and of course when I check the database connection with:

python airbnb.py -dbp

I get this:

Error:
ERROR   Connection test failed
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\python_37\airbnb\airbnb_config.py", line 186, in connect
    self.connection = psycopg2.connect(**cattr)
  File "C:\python_37\lib\site-packages\psycopg2\__init__.py", line 130, in conne
ct
    conn = _connect(dsn, connection_factory=connection_factory, **kwasync)
psycopg2.OperationalError: fe_sendauth: no password supplied


During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "airbnb.py", line 142, in db_ping
    conn = config.connect()
  File "C:\python_37\airbnb\airbnb_config.py", line 190, in connect
    logger.error(pgoe.message)
AttributeError: 'OperationalError' object has no attribute 'message'

Could someone help me in configuring psql database?

p.s. here is my airbnb config file if someone wants to check it:

Could someone help me in configuring psql database?

In particular, in the gitub folder there is a postgresql folder.
Do I have to copy these files in my postgresql installation? and if so, where?

And where do I have to run this code?:
psql --user airbnb airbnb < postgresql/schema_current.sql
