Thank you!

There are many database managers now, so why DbGate?

• Works everywhere - Windows, Linux, Mac, Web browser (+mobile web is planned), without compromises in features
• Based on standalone NPM packages, scripts can be run without DbGate (example - CSV export )
• Many data browsing functions based using foreign keys - master/detail, expand columns, expandable form view

• Application simplicity - DbGate takes the best and only the best from old DbGate, DatAdmin, DbMouse and SQL Database Studio
• Minimal dependencies
  • Frontend - Svelte
  • Backend - NodeJs, ExpressJs, database connection drivers
  • JavaScript + TypeScript
  • App - electron
• Platform independent - runs as web application in single docker container on server, or as application using Electron platform on Linux, Windows and Mac

Simple variant - runs WEB application:

yarn
yarn start

If you want more control, run WEB application:

yarn # install NPM packages

And than run following 3 commands concurrently in 3 terminals:

yarn start:api # run API on port 3000
yarn start:web # run web on port 5001
yarn lib # watch typescript libraries and plugins modifications

This runs API on port 3000 and web application on port 5001
Open http://localhost:5001 in your browser

If you want to run electron app:

yarn # install NPM packages
cd app
yarn # install NPM packages for electron

And than run following 3 commands concurrently in 3 terminals:

yarn start:web # run web on port 5001 (only static JS and HTML files)
yarn lib # watch typescript libraries and plugins modifications
yarn start:app # run electron app

This mode is very similar to production run of electron app. Electron doesn't use localhost:5001.

cd app
yarn

yarn
yarn build:app:local
yarn start:app:local

Unit tests (e.g. in dbgate-tools):

yarn workspace dbgate-tools test

Integration tests (requires Docker):

cd integration-tests
yarn test:local                                        # run all tests
yarn test:local:path __tests__/alter-database.spec.js  # run a single test file

E2E tests (Cypress):

yarn cy:open

Creating plugin is described in documentation

But it is very simple:

npm install -g yo # install yeoman
npm install -g generator-dbgate # install dbgate generator
cd dbgate-plugin-my-new-plugin # this directory is created by wizard, edit, what you need to change
yarn plugin # this compiles plugin and copies it into existing DbGate installation

After restarting DbGate, you could use your new plugin from DbGate.

DbGate uses pinomin logger. So by default, it produces JSON log messages into console and log files. If you want to see formatted logs, please use pino-pretty log formatter.
