Motor Admin VS docker-adminer

Tangential: MotorAdmin is a pretty reasonable, mountable, Rails-based option.

I'm using it to pack BrowserUp, a command line app that can run load tests in Ruby using your own Ruby/Capybara/Selenium/Cuprite libraries (note: still alpha, ping if interested). Motor Admin ships a web app with a no-code admin utility. I think Shopify would have been way better off using this for their latest command line interface rather than taking on a Node dependency, but they might not have realized this was an option, so that's part of why I'm sharing this.

There seems enough competitors when this looks like a tool from 20 years ago with limited functionality.

If you somehow do not use the obvious GUI tools like TablePlus, Postico or SequelAce but prefer web based, there are some that actually look modern.

For readonly usage, Metabase is good.

Thats exactly how Motor Admin works :)

If you want a more codeless approach (not as customizable, but it already looks good and works fine out of the box), I suggest Motor Admin. You just plop it in your project, run a few migrations and it's ready to go. From that point forward, you can add forms, graphs, and query all of your models without coding as much.

There are many open-source no-code tools so you can gain full control over your data/application with them as well as contribute into the source code.

For instance, you can deploy an admin panel with https://www.getmotoradmin.com/ (plug) and save a lot of time building custom internal tools.

If you prefer Adminer, here is the command to run:

However... I find this a little cumbersome for smooth development, so I much prefer to use Adminer, which as you may have guessed by now, can be spun up in it's very own container. The setup is similar to how we set up the MariaDB container and you can check out the official docs for the details should you want to set it up in the terminal too. The only problem with doing this is that you must set up a named network and connect both the MariaDB container and the Adminer container to it so that they can communicate. I did it a few times just to see how it was, and it's a lot of work so I'll just briefly explain the part of creating a network, because you will see later that there is a much easier way to achieve the same results even if doing it all manually is far more educational.

I was trying to mount Adminer on my Nas, and I wanted to mirror the plugins folder, using this compose configuration:

Like to run the docker image Adminer which is a full-featured database management tool written in PHP(think phpMyAdmin).

Here a compose.yml doing what you want using Percona MySQL and Adminer (formerly phpMinAdmin) a full-featured database management tool written in PHP. Replace the images with the apps you want.

I have a hard time getting my head around Docker and ports, but I'm specifying ports the way the adminer docs suggest to. Here's my service entry:

To really learn and get easy feedback use your fav db docker image, postgres, mysql(percona) or sqlite(alpine) with adminer and some test data(insert.sql) in a git repo pushed to gitlab/github.

Caddy reverse proxying to adminer port 8080 should do the trick. Reference: https://hub.docker.com/_/adminer
