I want to create a localhost database that allows me to enters data easily without coding.
For example, I want to create books database that stores: title, price, and publisher.And I want to enter data manually just like we are entering it in Excel. I mean without coding.
do you have any suggestions?
You can install Xampp
Xampp is one of my favorite Apache Local Server
Then, activate the sql, and enter to MyPhpAdmin
If you want Client Database, you can comfortably install MySql Workbench
This's localhost Cient database UI and much better if you want to create only database work.
Install phpMyAdmin
Start it in server mode
create a table with all the columns - title, price, and publisher
You are good to go

I'm using a postgresql (9.6) database in my project which is currently in development stage.
For production I want to use an exact copy/mirror of the database-cluster with a slightly different name.
I am aware of the fact that I can make a backup and restore it under a different cluster-name, but is there something like a mirror function via the psql client or pgAdmin (v.4) that mirrors all my schemas and tables and puts it in a new clustername?
In PostgreSQL you can use any existing database (which needs to be idle in order for this to work) on the server as a template when you want to create a new database with that content. You can use the following SQL statement:
CREATE DATABASE newdb WITH TEMPLATE someDbName OWNER dbuser;
But you need to make sure no user is currently connected or using that database - otherwise you will get following error.
ERROR: source database "someDbName" is being accessed by other users
Hope that helped ;)
I've set functional laravel project, database connection works, I've added some tables via terminal but now I'd like to see it just as you can see everything with phpmyadmin, for example. How to locate the database file and how to open it, by default?
In Terminal:
cd into Project directory
vagrant ssh
cd into Project directory in machine
mysql -u[username] -p[password] - e.g mysql -uhomestead -psecret
Vaala! You are connected to MySQL...
SHOW databases;
USE [Database Name]; - e.g use Homestead;
SHOW TABLES; to see all tables
SELECT * from [table]; - e.g select * from users
Are you using MySQL? If so, you can install the MySQL Workbench and enter the same database credentials to view your data similar to PHPMyAdmin. Alternatively, you can install PHPMyAdmin wherever you are developing (local machine/vagrant/remote). You can also view everything in tabular format with the command line and mysql as well, but it's not very friendly.
I have database on localhost. Now I want to install some web application which needs an empty database (for example "myapplication").
How can I create such database in PhpStorm 9?
I only found the way to open the SQL-Console (CTRL+SHIFT+F10), and create in manually by entering SQL command:
CREATE DATABASE myapplication;
Ok, is not much to write, so maybe no need to have a GUI for that ?! :)
I would like to ask, if it is possible to get my database from an offline (not functioning) xampp ?
You see, I have backed up my database earlier but I am not sure whether there are all the data I need now and the DB is pretty big (like 50 tables). I wanted to go for a local implementation of apache, mysql and PHP for my web applications. So I have reinstalled mysql and want to use my own local apache server instead of xampp.
I would like to know where can I find some .sql or something that is stored in xampp that could be otherwise accessible via the phpmyadmin? Is it even possible? I have scrolled through the xampp folder and tried to figure out where it can be, but didnt find anything though.
Thanks for help.
EDIT
I am on a mac running mavericks.
First go to localhost/phpmyadmin and create a database as before you have. Then import your database file through browse.
If your database name exmaple.sql then create database name will be example and import example.sql
I installed db2 client in my system for personal use. I am not able to understand from where to create the database so that i can create tables on that db and play around with sql queries as of now.
This is totally related to my personal use and learning purpose.
Please inform how to create a dummy database and play around with it with db2 client?
Regards,
Are you on Windows? Are you using DB2 Express-C? I'm assuming you are, since you say this is for personal work.
After you have the DB2 binaries installed, you should have been prompted with the "DB2 First Steps" application, where you could have the application go through a GUI to create the database for you. If you missed it, you should be able to find it in your start menu with Start -> Programs -> IBM DB2 -> DB2COPY1 (Default) -> Set-up Tools -> First Steps.
If you prefer the command line, you can use the following:
First, determine if your installation created a default instance (on Windows, this will be called DB2) by using the db2ilist command. In the DB2 Command Window, if you're not on the instance you want to create a database in, you can switch with the following command:
set db2instance=DB2
Be sure to not include spaces around the equal sign.
Now, in order to create a database in the current instance, you use this command:
db2 create database mydatbase
For further reading, IBM has produced a Getting Started ebook, and I would highly recommend you check it out!
The DB2 client is just that - a client only. It does not include the database engine.
To create a database you have to install the server. The server includes the client portions.
