Hi. What tool do you use to access production database remotely? Say you need to browse some data, perform queries. Is there something like pgAdmin?

I'm interested in SQLite and I'd like yo know more.




Copying and pasting my answer from another subthread:

I just scp the whole database to my local machine and use "db Browser for SQLite" (a mac app) :)

Would love to hear if there are other server-based db browsers for SQLite, though.


scp is the way I implemented querying a remote SQLite database under the hood in my data ide. Now that I think of it though I should probably add some clarification to docs or the UI that you're querying a local copy of the database and that your edits won't affect the original.

CloudBeaver works great for me, though I'm not doing anything intense.

Its SQLite so you would just copy the file and download it to a local machine for analysis through any number of tools. Presumably your setup would already be doing this as a form of backing up the data periodically.


You can use the command line for sqlite on the server. There are lots of GUI tools if you copy the file local. Here's one I use https://sqlitestudio.pl

A fairly well used GUI is https://sqlitebrowser.org (a project I help out personally).


You can do that with adminer https://www.adminer.org/
