It's using Qt, but QtWebEngine rather than QtWidgets or QtQuick. Qt is a great pick, iff you're building a native desktop app rather than a web app.
It's so depressing. I packaged it up for Arch Linux recently without realizing how bad the whole thing was. I'll probably be taking it out of the repos soon seeing as it doesn't even start anymore...
So I simply continue to use pgAdmin3 until something better comes along because I also really didn't like pgAdmin4.
https://bitbucket.org/openscg/pgadmin3-lts/issues/2/ssl-mode...
Is that really the case? :(
I've never tried it; I could tell from the requirements and the "deployment" instructions that I wanted nothing to do with it. Guess I saved myself some grief.
edit: looking back a bit I find this[1] "Ask HN":
"The problem with pgAdmin 4 is that it is garbage"
To my mind this situation indicates severe dysfunction in the PostgresQL community. All indications are that pgadmin 4 has been failing hard for at least a year now, and worse, whomever is responsible for this appears oblivious.
While it isn't exactly a pleasant tool to use, it's not like it's totally broken either. I've used other similar software that was much worse to use than pgAdmin 4 is.
It's slightly better than pgAdmin 3 in some ways, but it's also worse in other ways. Overall, it's mediocre. That might be the underlying problem: it doesn't live up to the high expectations that the rest of the PostgreSQL ecosystem tends to set.
If I had to give it a grade, I'd say it's a B- or a C+. It could be a lot worse, but it could also be a lot better.
I wish I could have said this myself. I feel there is a strong desire to get these issues out in the open and deal with this situation. Sadly, no moves are being made by those capable of doing so. If I can help in any way I would gladly do so.
I've given up on PGAdmin 4 for the next year at least.
I really wish they would get it right, Postgres is such a powerful tool, it doesn't do it any justice.
Is pgAdmin4 only horrible as a desktop application or is it horrible in general?
PgAdmin3 still works great, and I see no reason to move from it, but for me, Emacs + postgres is great for building up tables and procedures, pgsql is great for admin, and PgAdmin is great for data inspection. I really wish all of this was unified in one environment, but nearly nothing works globally.
If we could just get Postage named PGAdmin5 we'd really be in a good spot.
What's dinner conversation like? Do you have an office or does everybody live and work in the same house and never leave except for groceries and bowling?
Postico doesnt have autocomplete so i haven't tried it but i'm sure it's a fine product.
I didn't want to add Postage to that list because it didn't work with Postgres.app when I tried it [2]. If Postage now works properly with Postgres.app, feel free to open a new issue and I'll try it again.
This looks nice too, though!
Available in windows, mac and linux. Can work with MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite.
from their website [1]:
Navicat Premium is a database development tool that allows you to simultaneously connect to MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and SQLite databases from a single application. Compatible with cloud databases like Amazon RDS, Amazon Aurora, Amazon Redshift, SQL Azure, Oracle Cloud and Google Cloud. You can quickly and easily build, manage and maintain your databases.
*with more paid advance features, but hey, if you need those, it's worth it.
My own post on the topic: http://alexpetralia.com/posts/2016/6/8/you-should-be-using-d...
By the way, this looks really nice. It's an electron app, but it references having "a small fast C core library in the style of Node.js and NGINX." Can you go into more detail about the architecture of this and how it's related to Node and NGINX?
Postage is based on 'envelope' and works the same but the envelope repo has more info about architecture: https://github.com/workflowproducts/envelope
Great work!
P.S One feature I'm missing is to extract the selected data (in the Edit Data view of a table) to a CSV or to the clipboard - is it possible? I wasn't able to find out how to do it :/
Remember, it is very hard to donate...But very, very, very easy to pay for invoices.
This is one of the coolest postgres apps, that actually works on Linux as well. I would love to see this supported.
That object dependency graph is a killer feature.
Well done Justin!
Not a big fan of it so I think I'll continue using PSequel and pgAdmin3.
With Slack already running, I can't have another battery hog running simultaneously.
If you're open minded, you may want to read this: https://github.com/workflowproducts/postage/blob/master/Fact...
Also, postage has a webserver mode that is simple to install (configure-make-install) and it does not use Electron. You just use a browser window.
I don't think anyone who has a problem with Electron is going to rejoice at the option of a browser window instead. Typical Electron usage is problematic because it is a browser.
But Postage sounds like it might be the rare Electron app that is actually sensible.
Sorry what? How does one go about "compiling" the desktop version, then? Or the installers that are supposedly great?
Something really reeks of red flags over here.
We stand by the README wording because we've gotten a lot of feedback from users who are not developers. There are additional README documents for developers.
Windows 10 latest.
Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.14393 Build 14393(latest)
uninstalled Postage removed the following folders: C:\Users\jtocci\.postage C:\Users\jtocci\AppData\Roaming\Postage C:\Program Files (x86)\Workflow Products
Downloaded Postage.Windows.3.2.16.zip tried to install by double-click. nothing happened. (known Electron issue) right click to run as administrator install for all users, default location
Postage popped right up. Any ideas how I can get the error you're getting?
Also I would really recommend putting some of the screenshots on the Github readme page.

It's time we spent a little time promoting Postage.
As someone who's fed himself as a PostgreSQL DBA for over a decade now, I'm excited to see what this can do for me. Thank you!
There is a typo in the Description field of your https://www.workflowproducts.com/about.html page.
Desktop is written as destop.
Also based on Electron
Edit: I think I'll be sticking with sqlectron for now. Postage looks pretty featureful but very quirky. Good work on it though, good to have more free alternatives to Datagrip/pgadmin3 on Linux.
