  • greenmask

    PostgreSQL database anonymization tool

  • pgsync

    Sync data from one Postgres database to another

  • I‘m using https://github.com/ankane/pgsync for that, it has a very easy config yaml and you can just define queries that get pulled from the db.

    I have a simple one like „base_tables“ that just pulls me all the fixtures into my local db, then entity specific ones that pull an entity with a specific id + all related entries in other tables for debugging but as long as you can query it you can set up everything very easily.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • Polo

    Polo travels through your database and creates sample snapshots so you can work with real world data in development.

  • This is a Rails tool I use: https://github.com/IFTTT/polo — it works well.

  • copycat

    Generate deterministic fake values: The same input will always generate the same fake-output. (by snaplet)

  • Check out https://www.snaplet.dev (I'm the founder). We do exactly this.

  • dbsnapper

    Easy database snapshots for development and testing

  • I'm about to release v.2.0 of [DBSnapper](https://dbsnapper.com) which includes the subsetting feature. Works with Postgres and MySQL.

    I have a prelease build (v2.0.0-alpha) available at https://github.com/dbsnapper/dbsnapper/releases

    And I'm updating the documentation for v2.0.0 in real-time https://docs.dbsnapper.com. The new configuration is there, but I have some work to do adding docs for the new features.

    Works with Mac and Linux (Windows soon)

    If you're interested in giving the alpha a try, I'd love feedback and can walk you through any issues you might encounter.
