How do I access my Faaaster site's database?
The site's Access tab, Database section, gives you the connection credentials and opens an online SQL client with the Client DB (Adminer) button.
Open the SQL client
- Open the site, Access tab.
- In the Database section, click Client DB (Adminer).
- In the window that opens, note the Login and Password shown, then click Access the SQL client.
Adminer opens in your browser: you can browse tables, run queries and export data without installing anything. If the window says the SQL client is no longer available on the site, click Redeploy DB client to get a new link.
Get the credentials
The same section shows the database connection credentials: Host, DB Name, login and Password (hidden; the eye icon reveals it). Each value has its own copy button.
These credentials give full access to your data. Don't share them, and don't store them in plain text in a code repository.
Connect from an external tool
The database is not directly exposed to the Internet: it only accepts connections from inside the infrastructure. A client such as Sequel Ace, TablePlus or DBeaver therefore can't connect to it directly from your computer.
Need a SQL client installed on your computer? Contact support: the access is set up with the Faaaster team.
It's a protection, not a constraint. A database reachable from any address is a database that eventually gets found.
For a quick look, Adminer is still faster: nothing to configure.
