pgAdmin 4
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pgAdmin 4 is a rewrite of the popular pgAdmin3 management tool for the
|
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL (http://www.postgresql.org) database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At present, it is an experimental/proof of concept project. Use at your own
|
|
|
|
|
risk, and don't blame us if it breaks anything!

Architecture
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
pgAdmin 4 is being written as a web application in Python, using jQuery and
|
2015-02-25 14:30:09 -06:00
|
|
|
Bootstrap for the client side processing and UI. On the server side, Flask is
|
|
|
|
|
being utilised.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Although developed using web technologies, we intend for pgAdmin 4 to be usable
|
|
|
|
|
either on a web server using a browser, or standalone on a workstation. The
|
|
|
|
|
runtime/ subdirectory contains a QT based runtime application intended to allow
|
|
|
|
|
this - it is essentially a browser and Python interpretor in one package which
|
|
|
|
|
will be capable of hosting the Python application and presenting it to the user
|
|
|
|
|
as a desktop application.

|

|
|
|
Building
|
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build the runtime, the following packages must be installed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- QT 4.6 or above (older versions may work, but haven't been tested).
|
|
|
|
|
- Python 2.6 or above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming both qmake and python-config are in the path:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ cd $PGADMIN4_SRC/runtime
|
|
|
|
|
$ qmake
|
|
|
|
|
Project MESSAGE: Building for QT5+...
|
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Linux, an executable called 'pgAdmin4' will be built, and on Mac OS X, an
|
|
|
|
|
app bundle called pgAdmin4.app will be created.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the time of writing, no attempt has been made to build the runtime on a
|
|
|
|
|
Windows system, though in theory it should work.
|
