Yeah, it was a bit weird to me that I couldn’t find anything like this either, which is why I made it. Seems like all the visualization tools out there go from the database tables directly, but that defeats the cross-database portability of SQLAlchemy which is one of its best features: it works equally well without any changes on SQLite, Postgres, etc.
- michaelteter 3y agoYour tool looks great. In regards to difficulty finding alternatives, many database management tools (like DataGrip and Dbeaver) have ER diagram generators that work for all the types of databases the tools work for... so basically vendor agnostic. Other tools like Visio (blast from the past) do too.
- eigenvalue 3y agoSure, I meant something that could take SQLAlchemy data models as input and that was totally open source and free.
