Hi folks,
A often wished feature at our boothes at e.g. Chemnitzer Linux Tage were to have some kind of a SQL plugin for Geany, supporting executing queries at the database. As I'm also looking for something like this, I'm wondering what do you think such a plugin should be able to do in some global view. I don't think we will be able to build up another MySQLWorkbench or PGAdmin -- and this is also not my goal for a Geany plugin -- but most likley more than an execution of queries might would be useful.
This would be a good project for GeanyPy as it has all kinds of modules to access various types of databases.
One idea for the UI would be to do like Devhelp plugin does to add it's own help webview/notebook around Geany's, and then using gtktreeview or some libgda stuff make a gridview type of thing like is common in db/spreadsheet editors.
