In our university we have many postgresql user.
Each user has his own database.
When I start pgAdmin all databases are displayed.
Is there a button to avoid showing these databases?Ok,Dave and me have been discussing a little about this request, and we'll probably implement a configurable SQL restriction for that in 1.5/1.6. Your requirement seems typical for universities, let's declare this as my contribution to the Deutsches Bildungssystem! Greetings to the Geomatikum, where I spent quite some sleepy mornings in lectures, I remember... Regards,
AndreasHas there been any update on this?
Yes -
you can hide databases and schemas in 1.6 (currently in beta). You reminded me
so I've added the following note to the docs (the server properties page to be
exact):
The DB restriction field allows you to enter
an SQL restriction that will be used against the pg_database
table to limit the databases that you see. For example, you might enter:
datname IN ('live_db', 'test_db') so that only live_db and test_db are
shown in the pgAdmin browser. Note that you can also limit the schemas shown in
the database from the Database properties dialogue by entering a restriction
against pg_namespace.
Regards, Dave.
