A common complaint among new users was the difficulty in setting up the connections.
Connection URLs are admittedly confusing, and editing .toml
files isn't always straight-forward either.
To ease this initial difficulty, we added a textual
-based TUI tool to sqeleton, that allows users to edit configuration files and test the connections while editing them.
This tool needs textual
to run. You can install it using:
pip install 'sqeleton[tui]'
Make sure you also have drivers for whatever database connection you're going to edit!
Once everything is installed, you can run the editor with the following command:
sqeleton conn-editor <conf_path.toml>
Example:
sqeleton conn-editor ~/dbs.toml
The available actions and hotkeys will be listed in the status bar.
Note: using the connection editor will delete comments and reformat the file!
We recommend backing up the configuration file before editing it.
