[Feature]: Allow “Open in TablePlus” to use a specific database and user #189

Feature Request

Allow “Open in TablePlus” to use a specific database and user.

Description

The “Open in TablePlus” action (in the dropdown menu next to the start/stop button for each server) always opens a connection using default values.

This affects all supported database types, where TablePlus falls back to its own defaults instead of a project-specific database/user.

Problem

  • Connection may fail if default database/user does not exist (my case)
  • Requires manual "Edit" in TablePlus every time
  • Breaks the expected one-click workflow

Expected Behavior

Allow configuring connection details per server, such as:

  • Default database
  • Default user

Alternatively, allow linking to an existing TablePlus connection.

i.e (PostgreSQL)

For example, instead of always opening with:

  • user: postgres
  • database: postgres

Allow opening with something like:

  • user: username
  • database: db_name

Thanks :)
