I use Patroni (https://github.com/patroni/patroni) (no affiliation to me) which is a really nice and reliable PostgreSQL distribution that provides automatic failover and not just active-standby nodes with manual failover.

As I understand it, you would have to script a separate watchdog process for the basic PostgreSQL, to get high availability.
