PeepDB: Our Open Source DB project

I recently created peepDB, a command-line tool that lets developers and DBAs quickly peek into their MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB databases without writing SQL queries.

🔍 What it does:

  • View all tables or a specific table in your database
  • Works with MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB
  • Securely stores connection details for quick access

💡 Why I built it:
As a developer, I found myself constantly needing to check database contents during development and debugging. Writing SQL queries for simple checks like SELECT * FROM [table] felt tedious, so I created peepDB to streamline this process.

🚀 Next steps:
I'm looking to add more features and improve usability. Any suggestions?

💬 I'd love to hear your thoughts:

  • Would this tool be useful in your workflow?
  • What features would make it indispensable for you?
  • Any ideas on how to potentially monetize this?
