How is this different from Schema Spy (https://schemaspy.org https://schemaspy.org)?
- layer8 2y agoIt supports fewer databases. ;)
- callumgare 2y agoA big one for me is that it generates a nice interactive UI with the ability to zoom and reorganise tables rather than a static image. I find with sufficiently complex projects it becomes a real pain to navigate a exported image.
- ok123456 2y agoSchema Spy generates graphviz files. You could render those in the browser.
- breadwinner 2y agoOr use a tool that already does the rendering, with zoom and pan: https://visualdb.com https://visualdb.com
- ok123456 2y agoOr, generate an SVG from the dot file and pan and zoom like any other SVG file in the browser.
- breadwinner 2y agoThen you won't be able to click on a table to view details in a popup.
- webprofusion 2y agoHmm, the obvious difference is that it's a completely different tool that does a completely different job.
- ok123456 2y agoHow is it an "obvious" difference that it's a "completely" different tool that does a "completely different" job? Both tools generate diagrams from existing databases.
