Design goals

• Application simplicity - DbGate takes the best and only the best from old DbGate, DatAdmin and DbMouse .
• Minimal dependencies
  • Frontend - React, styled-components, socket.io
  • Backend - NodeJs, ExpressJs, socket.io, database connection drivers
  • JavaScript + TypeScript
  • App - electron
  • There is plan to incorporate SQLite to support work with local datasets
• Platform independed - will run as web application in single docker container on server, or as application using Electron platform on Linux, Windows and Mac

How Can I Contribute?

How to run development environment

yarn
yarn start

If you want to make modifications in TypeScript packages, run TypeScript compiler in watch mode in seconds terminal:

yarn lib

Open http://localhost:5000 in your browser

You could run electron app, using this server:

cd app
yarn
yarn start

How to run built electron app locally

This mode is very similar to production run of electron app. Electron app forks process with API on dynamically allocated port, works with compiled javascript files.

cd app
yarn

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

Packages

• api - backend, Javascript, ExpressJS
• datalib - TypeScript library for utility classes
• app - application (JavaScript)
• engines - drivers for database engine (mssql, mysql, postgres), analysing database structure, creating specific queries (JavaScript)
• filterparser - TypeScript library for parsing data filter expressions using parsimmon
• sqltree - JSON representation of SQL query, functions converting to SQL (TypeScript)
• types - common TypeScript definitions
• web - frontend in React (JavaScript)
