Scott Mead just blogged about using SchemaSpy with Postgres
Thomas,
I've spent the past two days without success trying to get schemaSpy
running here
An example from my machine that works:
aklaver@tito:~/bin> java -jar schemaSpy_5.0.0.jar -t pgsql -s public -u
postgres -db production -host localhost -dp
/home/aklaver/bin/postgresql-9.4.1212.jre6.jar -o s_spy
Using database properties:
[schemaSpy_5.0.0.jar]/net/sourceforge/schemaspy/dbTypes/pgsql.properties
Gathering schema
details........................................................................(2sec)
Writing/graphing summary..............(3sec)
Writing/diagramming
details.....................................................................(14sec)
Wrote relationship details of 69 tables/views to directory 's_spy' in 20
seconds.
View the results by opening s_spy/index.html
and have found a solution that works quickly and easily: dbeaver
<http://www.dbeaver.com/>. Yes, it's a GUI rather than CLI application but
it works ... and it's F/OSS under the GPL. Best of all worlds.
Looks interesting.
I downloaded the postgresql-jdbc driver and installed it in a couple of
places trying to make schemaSpy happy, and futzed with pg_hba.conf access
control. The dbeaver application downloaded and internally installed the
postgresql-jdbc driver it wants to use.
It took no time to figure out how to create, test, and establish a
connection to the databases and examine their E-R diagrams. They're now
saved as .png files.
Thanks very much for your pointer and my wishes for a healthy, happy, and
prosperous 2017 to you and all who responded to my question,
Rich
