Feature Request: Context Menu Improvements for Database Manipulation

Open mkormendy opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When I am manipulating databases, I find some of the basic options to add, delete and edit them from a context menu directly on the database tree woefully missing, unlike other apps.

Describe the solution you'd like Options should be available in the right-click context menu of the database tree column to Add, Delete, Duplicate, Rename, and Alter a database for the server I am connected to. Images below in "Additional context" section.

Describe alternatives you've considered I love the feature in the freely available SequelAce app on MacOS. It's one of the reasons why I keep it around and haven't fully moved over to SequelPro Studio (which I pay for and the feature should be available in).

Additional context Screenshot 2023-06-21 at 12 14 12 PM Screenshot 2023-06-21 at 12 15 21 PM

Environment (please complete the following information):

  • Device: Macbook Pro.
  • OS: MacOS Ventura 13.4.
  • SQLPro app Version: SQLPro Studio (full) 2023.43 (Build 111043.5).
  • Installation sources: App Store, Website download.
  • Target database server: All database server types where possible. I jump between MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server.

Requests will be closed until environmental details are provided. I understand.

Closed as feature request template was not followed.

Honestly? The original post was rather self explanatory without overloading the request with obvious information and cruft. I have now modified the post to reflect the template. Sheesh.

Thanks! While the original post did include the features you wanted, it didn't include the app you were using which I generally use to provide the fist build confirm if things have been fixed/work as expected.

The add/delete/rename options should be fairly simple and should probably make it into an upcoming build. No ETA on the others as of yet.

I think sequel ace is open source, might be a good place to find implementation tips for the alter and duplicate items too, but that's only for mysql - not sure how translatable they would be for other db servers.

Drop database (MySQL) will be available for a build late next week. Investigating the others now as well.
