Hello,
We are trying to map out the future of pgAdmin and would like to get
feedback from it's users to help us produce software that is beneficial to
as many people as possible. We would appreciate any comments or
suggestions...
Currently we are working on a couple of large projects:
1) pgSchema is an object library that will represent an entire PostgreSQL
server, not just a single database. It will provide collections of objects
like Databases, Users, Types and Tables. It is a hierarchical object model
with methods and events in place to provide a framework for any application
(not just pgAdmin) for logging, query execution and
browsing/creating/deleting any database object (ACLs allowing of course).
The intention is to replace the current Browsers in pgAdmin with a single
Treeview Browser similar (though superior :-)) to the one found in the MS
SQL Server Enterprise Manager.
2) Full Development Environment - this allows for building of
Functions/Views/Triggers etc in a non-production environment. Dependencies
are tracked, and when required, the code can be fully or partially built on
the server. The intention is to add code repository features as well as
facilities to roll out code/object packages to production server(s) as
required.
We would welcome any comments on these and other possible projects.
Regards,
Dave Page
pgAdmin Project Leader
