I'm having this same issue: I can't view the database for any service started with homebrew.

@huyphams you've added the "help wanted" label. Can you detail what we could do to help (if anything)? If this is a call to contributions, do you have any leads on where to start to make this work? I'm assuming that this notification is hardcoded in because DBngin knows it cannot use these homebrew databases. Do we know why? What is the limitation?

The problem is DBgin does not know the port of the homebrew services. (TablePlus need to know the port/socket in order to make a connection) so at the moment, I still don't know how to establish the connection from homebrew services. Let's say, it can be 5432 by PostgreSQL default but the user can change the port by updating the config and also the location of the config.

This may be unrelated but cliccking "Open in TablePlus" does absolutely nothing on my clean install (MySQL 8). So I assume you need to independently figure out that TablePlus is a different (paid) app... frustrating UX.

Thank you for this. I was getting frustrated it wasn't opening not matter what I tried :)
