Examples of using the program

How to start

1. Run the program (you can download the latest release here)
2. Go to localhost:500
3. Open the list of databases
4. Add a database by pressing sign '+'
5. Enjoy!

Settings

Setting	Default value	Description
port	:500	port of the website
offset	100	number of records on a single page
debug	false	mode of debugging
check version	true	should program check a new version
open browser	true	should the program open a browser automatically
neat window	true	should the program open a neat window

You can change settings by editing a config file or using command line flags.

Config file

The config file – config.ini. The default content:

# List of all opts:
# port
# debug
# offset
# should_check_version
# is_write_mode
# open_browser
# open_neat_window

# Port for website
port=:500
debug=false
# number of records on a single screen
offset=100
should_check_version=true
is_write_mode=true
open_browser=true
# has effect only if 'open browser' is true
open_neat_window=true

You can overwrite values from the config file by setting flags.

Flags

The default values are the same as values in the config file.

Flag	Description
-port	port of the website
-offset	number of records on single page
-debug	mode of debugging
-checkVer	should program check a new version
-openBrowser	should the program open a browser automatically
-neatWindow	should the program open a neat window

Security

Program use function EscapeString() from package html for preventing of js-injection.

Other

You can change mode of converting []byte. Just change functions ConvertKey(b []byte) string (or ConvertValue()) in src/converters/converter.go

Note: function will be used for converting all keys (or values). So, if your keys (or values) were converted from either string or uint program will crash.

Additional info

Initial work was undertaken on Bitbucket.

Unfortunately, I'm not a good frontend and UI developer. So, it would be great, if you decide to help me.
