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 
Backbone for the client side processing and UI. On the server side, CherryPy is
being considered.

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.

Support
-------

pgAdmin 4 is completely experiemental and unsupported!
