    # connecting to a PostgreSQL database
    db = dataset.connect('postgresql://scott:tiger@localhost:5432/mydatabase')
 
+It is also possible to define the `URL` as an environment variable called `DATABASE_URL`
+so you can initialize database connection without explicitly passing an `URL`::

 the database bindings to support that database. SQLite is included in
 the Python core, but PostgreSQL requires ``psycopg2`` to be installed.
