The DMGs are Developer-ID signed and notarized, so macOS trusts them on first launch — no `xattr` or "Open Anyway" step needed. > **macOS first launch:** Gridline is Developer-ID signed and notarized, so macOS opens it without a Gatekeeper prompt. Not sure if your Mac is Intel or Apple Silicon? See [Which file should I download?](#which-file-should-i-download) below. --- ## What is Gridline? Gridline is a modern, open-source database GUI client built with [Tauri 2.0](https://tauri.app), Rust, and React. It is lightweight by design (~40 MB baseline), powerful by default, and free from the paywalls that limit commercial alternatives. - **No caps** on connections, tabs, or saved queries. - **Deep PostgreSQL tooling** — visual `pg_dump`, `pg_restore`, and DB-to-DB sync. - **Backup, restore & sync for every database** — PostgreSQL, MySQL (`mysqldump` / bundled MariaDB clients), and SQLite (`.dump`), with direct DB-to-DB sync between live connections. - **Excel export** — CSV, JSON, SQL, Markdown, and `.xlsx` from any data grid. - **Cancel long-running queries** — a per-connection cancel button instead of waiting it out or killing the app. - **SQLite table editor** — the visual Create Table / Edit Table flow now works on SQLite too (`INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT` instead of `serial`). - **Full MySQL + SQLite browsing** — connect, browse, query, and edit MySQL and SQLite the same way you do PostgreSQL. - **Full object explorer** — not just tables, but functions, triggers, sequences, enums, extensions, materialized views, and procedures. - **Interactive ER diagram** — explore relationships visually with crow's-foot cardinality notation. - **Production-safe editing** — stage INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE changes, review the generated SQL, then commit all at once. The app ships with a built-in **Gridline Demo (SQLite)** database, so you can explore every feature immediately without setting up a server. --- ## Who is it for? Gridline is built for developers and small teams who manage multiple database environments: - **Full-stack developers** switching between local, staging, and production databases. - **Platform / DBAs** who need `pg_dump`, `pg_restore`, and sync tooling in a native UI. - **Teams that want native speed** without Electron bloat or seat licenses. --- ## Recent Changes
View the full changelog - **v0.7.15** — **Support channel on the landing page**: optional coffee via [Ko-fi](https://ko-fi.com/adrianbonpin), never gates a feature. Landing copy refreshed (em dashes dropped, OSS section simplified, funding FAQ); version bump. - **v0.7.14** — **No more repeated macOS keychain prompts**: saved connection passwords and SSH secrets are now ACL-pinned to the app's code signature on every save (`keychain_acl`), so app upgrades never re-trigger the macOS keychain access dialog (users upgrading from pre-signing builds see one final prompt — choose **Always Allow**). **Install via Homebrew**: `brew tap AdrianBonpin/gridline https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/homebrew-gridline.git` then `brew install --cask gridline`; version bump. - **v0.7.13** — **macOS is now Developer-ID signed and notarized**: the app is properly code-signed with a Developer ID Application certificate and notarized by Apple, so macOS opens it without the Gatekeeper "Open Anyway" prompt or the `xattr` quarantine workaround. The release script (`scripts/release-mac.sh`) auto-detects the signing identity from the keychain, notarizes + staples both architectures, and verifies the result before uploading; version bump. - **v0.7.12** — **Reliable cell editing for non-text columns**: editing a PostgreSQL cell whose type isn't `text` (integers, booleans, UUIDs, `json`/`jsonb`, timestamps, enums, numerics, …) previously failed with a Rust serialization error; edited values are now sent to PostgreSQL in text wire format so the server parses them into the column's own type. **Recent connections fix**: the Recent strip no longer renders empty on first launch when the connections list hadn't loaded yet. **Full CI release pipeline for Windows**: self-hosted Windows runner builds the `.exe`/`.msi` installers (bundled `pg_dump`/`pg_restore`/`psql` + MariaDB clients) and uploads them to the release alongside Linux; version bump. - **v0.7.10** — **Copy connection URL**: from a connection card's ⋮ menu, copy the connection string for use in env vars / other tools — **Copy connection URL** (includes the password, fetched from the OS keychain on demand) and **Copy connection URL (no password)** (safe to share). Builds `postgresql://` / `mysql://` / `sqlite://` / `redis://` strings with percent-encoded credentials and the PG `sslmode` appended; version bump. - **v0.7.9** — **macOS install/launch fixes**: the app's local store now opens under the OS app-data directory (a cwd-relative `gridline.db` made Finder-launched copies silently exit with a Rust panic before the UI started); macOS bundles are **ad-hoc signed at build time** (`signingIdentity "-"`), replacing the Xcode linker-only signature that macOS treated as unsigned ("damaged and can't be opened", silent Finder refusals) — users now get a standard one-time Gatekeeper prompt (see the [install notes](#installers-are-unsigned-for-now), incl. the `xattr` workaround); **OpenSSL is vendored** into the `ssh2` build so the release no longer depends on a Homebrew OpenSSL path; version bump. - **v0.7.8** — **SQLite `.dump` backup/restore** plus **backup / restore / sync for MySQL & SQLite** (mysqldump-based, system-first); **Excel (.xlsx) export** in the grid toolbar alongside CSV/JSON/SQL/Markdown; **cancel long-running queries** per connection; **settings export/import** (JSON); **Windows/Linux title bar fix** (macOS-only overlay drag strip); **SQLite table editor** (Create/Edit Table with SQLite-aware type mapping); version bump. - **v0.7.7** — PostgreSQL **roles & grants** management (create/edit/drop roles with attributes + a per-role privilege explorer across tables/sequences/routines/schemas/databases — collapsible grouped lists with GRANT/REVOKE staging) and **table maintenance** (VACUUM / ANALYZE / REINDEX from the table menu). **Create Table / Edit Table** visual editor: columns grid with type dropdowns and drag-to-reorder, single + composite primary keys, column-diff staging (ADD / DROP / RENAME COLUMN, ALTER TYPE, SET | DROP DEFAULT, SET | DROP NOT NULL — one statement per queue item), atomic column-reorder table rebuild (single transaction, preserves constraints/indexes/FKs/grants/sequences, fail-closed for triggers/RLS/inheritance/partitioning). **FK management** — multi-column composer with cross-schema references and ON DELETE/UPDATE, inlined into CREATE TABLE; **table options** (tablespace, row-level security); changes queue auto-refreshes the object tree after schema-modifying commits; version bump. - **v0.7.6** — Full PostgreSQL object management (create/edit/drop for enums, functions, procedures, triggers, sequences, extensions, views, materialized views, indexes, constraints) staged through the changes queue with generated-SQL previews; Enable Keychain toggle wired (default ON, opt-out; OFF = session-only); Objects view upgraded to the shared tabbed workspace (object detail tabs with per-type icons, inline manual query + changes queue); ⌘K object search fixes; version bump. - **2026-08-05:** v0.7.5 — bundled `pg_dump`/`pg_restore`/`psql` (system-first, bundled fallback) so admin features work with no separate install; schema CRUD (create/rename/drop with CASCADE + dependency warning); Cmd+K object search (current schema, all object types); copy-as-DDL for every browsable object type; `pg_depend` object-dependency view shown before destructive drops. - **2026-08-04:** v0.7.5 — revamped the New Connection screen into a two-stage flow with a 6-provider grid (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Redis, Supabase, NeonDB; managed presets ship with setup guides + SSL hints) and added full MySQL DB viewer support (connect, browse, query, inline cell editing + changes queue, DDL copy). - **2026-08-04:** Revamped the built-in SQLite demo database with realistic e-commerce data (20 users, 24 products, 50 orders, 100 page views, 500 audit rows) and renamed it to **Gridline Demo (SQLite)**. - **2026-07-XX:** Added inline cell editing with a stage-first changes queue, row-detail drawer, keyboard navigation, and cell-level copy. - **2026-07-XX:** Added visual filter builder with drag-and-drop column palette and type-aware operators. - **2026-07-XX:** Added schema visualizer with React Flow + dagre, crow's-foot notation, and cross-schema FK support. - **2026-07-XX:** Added query history dropdown, saved queries, and a two-pane Queries view. - **2026-06-XX:** Added settings redesign with live theme, accent color, font size, editor options, and tag reorder. - **2026-06-XX:** Added SSH tunneling (password + key auth) and full PostgreSQL TLS runtime for production connections. > See the full history in the [roadmap](#roadmap) below or the [git log](./commits).

Expect rough edges and please [open issues](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/issues/new) when you hit them. #### macOS signing & notarization Gridline's macOS builds are **Developer-ID signed and notarized by GitHub Actions**, so macOS opens them without a Gatekeeper prompt. **One-time setup** (only the repo owner needs to do this): 1. **Create a Developer ID Application certificate** — [developer.apple.com](https://developer.apple.com) → Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles → **+** → **Developer ID Application**. Generate a Certificate Signing Request from Keychain Access (Certificate Assistant → *Request a Certificate From a Certificate Authority*), upload it, download the `.cer`, and double-click to install into your login keychain. Verify with `security find-identity -v -p codesigning`. 2. **Create an App Store Connect API key** for notarization — [appstoreconnect.apple.com](https://appstoreconnect.apple.com) → Users and Access → **Integrations** → **App Store Connect API** → **+** (name it, *Developer* access). Download the `.p8` (shown once) and note the **Key ID** and **Issuer ID**. 3. **Add the signing secrets** to the repository (**Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions**): | Secret | Value | | :--------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `APPLE_CERTIFICATE` | base64 of the exported Developer ID `.p12` — `base64 -i DeveloperID.p12 \| pbcopy` | | `APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD` | the password you set when exporting the `.p12` | | `APPLE_SIGNING_IDENTITY` | e.g. `Developer ID Application: Your Name (TEAMID)` — from `security find-identity -v -p codesigning` | | `KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD` | any throwaway password for the temporary CI keychain | | `APPLE_API_KEY` | App Store Connect **Key ID** | | `APPLE_API_ISSUER` | App Store Connect **Issuer ID** | | `APPLE_API_KEY_CONTENT` | contents of the downloaded `AuthKey_.p8` | When these secrets are absent the macOS jobs still build, but the DMGs are ad-hoc signed and **not** notarized (users get the “Open Anyway” prompt). The CI re-signs the bundled PostgreSQL/MariaDB client binaries with the same Developer ID identity, because Apple rejects ad-hoc-signed nested executables during notarization. `scripts/release-mac.sh` is the **local fallback** path (used before GitHub Actions took over macOS builds, and still handy for a signed build without burning CI minutes). It auto-detects the Developer ID identity from your keychain, reads notarization credentials from `~/.config/gridline/notarize.env` (`APPLE_API_KEY`, `APPLE_API_ISSUER`, `APPLE_API_KEY_PATH`), signs both architectures, notarizes + staples them, and verifies the result before uploading. If the certificate or credentials are missing it fails with instructions (set `GRIDLINE_SKIP_NOTARIZE=1` to build signed-but-unnotarized for testing only). **Windows** still shows a SmartScreen prompt (no Windows signing cert yet); **Linux** installs without a warning. #### Which file should I download? Each release contains **one file per platform** — you only need the one that matches your computer. The links below point at the current release (**v0.8.0**): | Your system | Download this | Notes | | :------------------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------- | | macOS **Apple Silicon** (M1/M2/M3/M4…) | [Gridline_0.8.0_aarch64.dmg](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases/download/v0.8.0/Gridline_0.8.0_aarch64.dmg) | `aarch64` = Apple's own chip | | macOS **Intel** | [Gridline_0.8.0_x64.dmg](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases/download/v0.8.0/Gridline_0.8.0_x64.dmg) | `x64` = Intel/AMD | | **Windows** (most PCs) | [Gridline_0.8.0_x64-setup.exe](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases/download/v0.8.0/Gridline_0.8.0_x64-setup.exe) | The `.msi` is an alternate installer (for enterprises/IT admins) | | **Debian / Ubuntu** | [Gridline_0.8.0_amd64.deb](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases/download/v0.8.0/Gridline_0.8.0_amd64.deb) | Install: `sudo apt install ./Gridline_0.8.0_amd64.deb` | | **Fedora / RHEL / openSUSE** | [Gridline-0.8.0-1.x86_64.rpm](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases/download/v0.8.0/Gridline-0.8.0-1.x86_64.rpm) | Install: `sudo dnf install Gridline-0.8.0-1.x86_64.rpm` | | **Any other Linux** | [Gridline_0.8.0_amd64.AppImage](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases/download/v0.8.0/Gridline_0.8.0_amd64.AppImage) | Works on every distro: `chmod +x` the file, then double-click it | **Not sure if your Mac is Intel or Apple Silicon?** Click the **Apple menu** → **About This Mac**. If it shows "Apple M1/M2/M3/M4…" download the `aarch64` file; if it shows an Intel chip, download `x64`. Downloading the wrong one won't run. #### How releases are made Cutting a release is one command — CI builds everything. **Releases are cut from `prod`, which is the production branch** — only push release tags from `prod`, never from feature branches: ```bash git checkout prod && git pull git tag v0.7.15 git push origin v0.7.15 ``` GitHub Actions (`.github/workflows/release.yml`) builds the **macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel), Windows, and Linux** installers in parallel and opens a **draft release** on the [Releases](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/gridline/releases) page. Review the draft and hit **Publish release** — publishing triggers a follow-up job that bumps the Homebrew cask in [`AdrianBonpin/homebrew-gridline`](https://github.com/AdrianBonpin/homebrew-gridline) (requires the `HOMEBREW_TAP_TOKEN` secret; skipped when unset). The self-hosted Gitea mirror (`.gitea/workflows/release.yml`) still builds Linux and Windows for the Gitea release, and `scripts/release-mac.sh` can build macOS locally — both are kept as a fallback if GitHub is unavailable. Before tagging, make sure the version number is in sync across `desktop/package.json`, `desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml`, and `desktop/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json`, and update the **README download tables** (Download + Which file should I download?) to the new version's asset names. ### Build from source ```bash # 1.
