How to contribute

Any contributions are welcome. If you want to contribute without coding, consider following:

Tell your friends about DbGate or share on social networks - when more people will use DbGate, it will grow to be better
Write review on Slant.co or G2
Create issue, if you find problem in app, or you have idea to new feature. If issue already exists, you could leave comment on it, to prioritise most wanted issues.
Become a backer on Open collective
Where a small coding is acceptable for you, you could create plugin. Plugins for new themes can be created actually without JS coding.

Thank you!

Why is DbGate different

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

Design goals

Application simplicity - DbGate takes the best and only the best from old DbGate, DatAdmin and DbMouse .
Minimal dependencies
- Frontend - Svelte, socket.io
- Backend - NodeJs, ExpressJs, socket.io, 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

How to run development environment

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 5000
yarn lib # watch typescript libraries and plugins modifications

This runs API on port 3000 and web application on port 5000
Open http://localhost:5000 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 5000 (only static JS and HTML files)
yarn lib # watch typescript libraries and plugins modifications
yarn start:app # run electron app

How to run built electron app locally

This mode is very similar to production run of electron app. Electron doesn't use localhost:5000.

cd app
yarn

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

How to create plugin

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.
