Обсуждение: open source ERD for postgresql database
I would like to use an ERD tool for postgres and it be open source. Any suggestions? -- Regards, Barbara Stephenson EDI Specialist/Programmer Turbo, division of Ozburn-Hessey Logistics 2251 Jesse Jewell Pkwy NE Gainesville, GA 30507 tel: (678)989-3020 fax: (404)935-6171 barbara@turbocorp.com www.ohlogistics.com
I've been using GNU ferret for a while, it's OK for simple tasks, and can produce table graphs and even output rudimentary PostgreSQL DDL in Version 0.6, but it doesn't support PostgreSQL's full range of types yet and the handling is somewhat awkward. Version 0.7 looks much more promising, at least from the screen shots, but that hasn't been release yet: http://www.gnuferret.org/ On Fri, 2008-09-12 at 09:59 -0400, Barbara Stephenson wrote: > I would like to use an ERD tool for postgres and it be open source.

This sort of depends on what you want to do with the ERD. If I want to document an existing system, I use Aqua Data Studio. It's not free, but it will take an existing system and draw the ERD for you based on the relationships it finds in the database. There are things that I don't like about it. It puts the tables into the ERD in alpha order. This leads to some spaghetti ERD's. You can move the tables around and then save them. The problem is that once they are saved, it's an image and you can't move them anymore. If you recreate the ERD you have to begin again to move the tables around. Another tool that some people like, but that I haven't used is called SQL-EZ. It's cost is trivial.

Thank you all for your input. Yes I would like to get an ERD for an existing system plus to create a new system. All the ones recommended are any of them for Linux. Our database resides on Redhat 4. I prefer free/open source so I can at least take a look to see if it's user friendly. However, I know some do have a 30 day trial.

My databases are running on top of Solaris 10, but I don't think RedHat should be a problem. Aqua Data Studio is one of the products that allow you to do the trial version.

Hi, I try to read bytea column from postgresql db over a dblink in Oracle DB. But I could not. How can I solve the problem? In windows environment there is a parameter in odbc driver bytea as LO. I could not find how to set it on unix odbc. Versions of products I Use: Postgresql 8.3.3 on redhat Oracle DB : 10.2.0.4 on HP/UX HSODBC : 10.2.0.4
Looks interesting, how well does MICRO-OLAP support the full range of PostgreSQL's types? Things like "cidr" for instance.

Sorry just now had some time to look at this but unfortunately this is not for PG on linux. :( Anibal David Acosta wrote: > MICRO-OLAP Database designer for postgres is a great tool. > > > > -----Mensaje original----- > De: pgsql-admin-owner@postgresql.org > [mailto:pgsql-admin-owner@postgresql.org] En nombre de Carol Walter > Enviado el: lunes, 15 de septiembre de 2008 02:58 p.m. > Para: Thomas Jacob > CC: Barbara Stephenson; pgsql-admin@postgresql.org > Asunto: Re: [ADMIN] open source ERD for postgresql database > > This sort of depends on what you want to do with the ERD.
