Linux ERD software
in [General]

From: Ashley Sheridan on 18 Feb 2010 07:26 I don't normally need an ERD, but this latest project I'm on has some pretty complex database tables, and as I'm working with someone else on it, I need to plan out exactly how all the tables relate to each other properly. Do any of you have any suggestions for ERD software that will run on Linux. It can't be web-based (unless it's something I can run easily on my own local server) as I won't have access to the Internet all the time I'm working on this. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk

From: haliphax on 24 Feb 2010 12:28 Dia is also a superb diagramming software, though I don't think it generates any SQL for you when it's said and done. There are versions for several operating systems (including Linux AND Windows). // Todd

I had a look at dia, and it seemed more geared to electronic diagrams than database ones (although I didn't play with it for too long). I just drew them in the end in OOo, but I'm going to take a look at MySQL Workbench when I get some time, but this project is already in danger of falling behind schedule :( Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk |
