pgadmin 4 is nothing to do with the PostgreSQL project itself, it's just a third party client.

There are many other third-party clients listed here - https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Clients -
most of them probably better than pgadmin4.

Just over a year ago, I started to look for free / open source clients for Postgres, and went through most of that list.  

Unless you are willing to pay for a commercial license, most of them are not close to PG or have some limitations that made them unusable for me.  Several 'free' tools were limited as to the number of tables, databases or whatever that they could handle.

Currently I am on PGAdmin 4.4, and it works fine for me (on Windows 10), and has kept up with all the functionality available in Postgres, such as procedures.

Hi There

first, thanks a lot for the great an beautiful software we get from PostgreSQL and all people around it.

But I wonder how it comes, that installing pgadmin4 is so incredibly hard?

And no documentation.

I would like to install pgadmin4 to my ubuntu 18.1 laptop.

Where do I find doku on how to install pgadmin4. Preferably I would like to install it using pip?

thanks

robert

Thanks to Postgres Debian/Ubuntu packaging team, Installing pgAdmin4 is straightforward task,

1) Create the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list and add a line for the repository

deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ bionic-pgdg main

2) Import the repository signing key, and update the package lists

wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -

3) sudo apt-get update

4) sudo apt-get install pgadmin4

Check https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu/ for more information.
