If you have more trouble, though, the easiest (and recommended by postgresql) way to install postgresql on Mac OS X is via the GUI installer provided by EnterpriseDB. The cleanest way by far to start/stop/restart PostgreSQL if you have installed it through brew is to simply unload and/or load the launchd configuration file that comes with the installation: launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist. In this article, we’ll walk through the process of installing a Postgres database on a Mac OS X machine and set it up for Ruby on Rails development. Install Postgres Database with Homebrew. Homebrew is a popular package manager for OS X. To install Postgres with Homebrew, follow the steps below.
Why yet another PostgreSQL GUI client? Why not just pgAdmin?
Well, pgAdmin is great for its feature-richness. However, I found its UI is clumsy and complicated. I know there is a list of PostgreSQL GUI Tools. However, they are either web-based, Java-based* or don't support the features I want. In the good old MySQL world, my favorite client is Sequel Pro, but its support for PostgreSQL doesn't seem to be happening. So, I decided to make one myself.
* No offense to the Java community. I am a Java developer myself and I like JVM a lot. I just dislike Java desktop apps personally.
Is PSequel open source?
No. There is no plan to open source it at this moment.
Is PSequel a forked version of Sequel Pro?
No, PSequel is written from scratch in Swift 2, although PSequel's UI is highly inspired by Sequel Pro.
Why macOS 10.10+ only?
I am developing PSequel in my spare time. By supporting macOS 10.10+ only, I can keep the codebase simpler and save time by not testing it in older versions of macOS. And, less code, less bugs.
What's the current status of PSequel?
PSequel is still in its early stage. My plan to implement most features in Sequel Pro. If you think a feature is important, please let me know and I'll adjust its priority based on its popularity.
