@azimutt/connector-postgres v0.1.11

PostgreSQL connector

This library allows to connect to PostgreSQL, extract its schema and more...

It lists all schemas, tables, columns, relations and types and format them in a JSON Schema.

This library is made by Azimutt to allow people to explore their PostgreSQL database. It's accessible through the Desktop app (soon), the CLI or even the website using the gateway server.

Feel free to use it and even submit PR to improve it:

• improve PostgreSQL queries (look at getSchema function)

Publish

• update package.json version
• update lib versions (pnpm -w run update + manual)
• test with pnpm run dry-publish and check azimutt-connector-postgres-x.y.z.tgz content
• launch pnpm publish --no-git-checks --access public

View it on npm.

Dev

If you need to develop on multiple libs at the same time (ex: want to update a connector and try it through the CLI), depend on local libs but publish & revert before commit.

• Depend on a local lib: pnpm add <lib>, ex: pnpm add @azimutt/models
• "Publish" lib locally by building it: pnpm run build

Local Setup

You can use the PostgreSQL Official image:

docker run --name postgres_sample -p 5433:5432 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres postgres:latest

Connect with host (localhost), port (5433), user (postgres) and pass (postgres) or using postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5433/postgres, then add some tables and data:

CREATE TABLE users (
    id              BIGSERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
