README

pgweb

Web-based PostgreSQL database browser written in Go.

Overview

This is a web-based browser for PostgreSQL database server. Its written in Go and works on Mac OSX, Linux and Windows machines. Main idea behind using Go for the backend is to utilize language's ability for cross-compile source code for multiple platforms. This project is an attempt to create a very simple and portable application to work with PostgreSQL databases.

Features:

  • Connect to local or remote server
  • Browse tables and table rows
  • Get table details: structure, size, indices, row count
  • Execute SQL query and run analyze on it
  • Export query results to CSV
  • View query history

Installation

Please visit Github Releases to download a precompiled binary for your operating system.

Currently supported:

  • Mac OSX 64bit
  • Linux 32/64bit
  • Windows 32/64bit

Supported PostgreSQL versions:

  • 9.1
  • 9.2
  • 9.3

Older versions of PostgreSQL might also work but this project is not tested on 8.x branches.

Usage

Start server:

pgweb --host localhost --user myuser --db mydb

You can also specify a connection URI instead of individual flags:

pgweb --url postgres://user:password@host:port/database

It works great with Heroku Postgres if you need to troubleshoot production database or simply run a few queries.

Full CLI options:

Usage:
  pgweb [OPTIONS]

Application Options:
  -v            Print version
  -d            Enable debugging mode (false)
      --url=    Database connection string
      --host=   Server hostname or IP (localhost)
      --port=   Server port (5432)
      --user=   Database user (postgres)
      --db=     Database name (postgres)
      --ssl=    SSL option (disable)
      --listen= HTTP server listen port (8080)

Compile from source

Go 1.3+ is required. You can install Go with homebrew:

brew install go

To compile source code run the following command:

make setup
make dev

This will produce pgweb binary in the current directory.

There's also a task to compile binaries for other operating systems:

make build

Under the hood it uses gox. Compiled binaries will be stored into ./bin directory.
