New Feature: Autocomplete

• Postico now has a brand new autocomplete feature for the SQL query editor.

  • Press Esc or Ctrl-Space to show a list of possible completions. Postico shows completions for SQL keywords, table names, column names and functions.
  • Press Tab to automatically complete words. Tab completion works very similar to command line tools like psql and bash.

December 14, 2017

Postico v1.2.4

Postico 1.2.4 is a maintenance release for customers running macOS 10.9. It contains all the bugfixes from Postico 1.3, but none of the new features that use APIs from macOS 10.10.

• Postico now correctly detects Microsoft Office documents in bytea columns #447

August 4, 2017

Postico v1.2

New Features

• Keep Connection Alive: Postico now periodically sends a command to the server to ensure that the connection isn't terminated by a firewall or similar. This setting replaces the "Disconnect Automatically" function, which did not work reliably when using temp tables or changing settings like the search path. #310
• Restore session settings: Postico now remembers session settings (like time zone, datestyle, search path) and restores them after reconnecting when the connection was lost.
• The new SQL Preview button for filters lets you display the SQL generated by Postico #61
• Postico now displays partitioned tables (introduced in PostgreSQL 10)
• Postico can now display Redshift Spectrum tables #382
• Switch between tabs with ⌘1 to ⌘9 #391

Improvements

• I added an "is distinct from" filter, and removed "is not exactly" to avoid confusion. The difference is that the former includes NULL values while the latter does not. #368
• Filters with blank fields are now ignored. There is now a new filter that searches for empty strings. #330
• Made row count & elapsed time selectable #334
• Added keyboard shortcuts for changing the font size (⌘+ and ⌘-) #335
• More consistent handling of the ESC key:
  • ESC now means "Revert Changes" in most text fields
  • ESC no longer triggers System Autocomplete #379
  • ESC dismisses the filter bar & page selector
• Reloading no longer collapses schemas #102
• ⌘↩ now applies filters in the table view #313
• Foreign keys are now editable #264
• Made it more obvious how to activate Postico. All nag dialogs now have an "Activate License…" button, and I've added an "Activate License…" menu item to the help menu. #404

Bugfixes

• Fixed an issue that prevented pasting into the SQL Query View #244
• Fixed an issue where the Open Quickly command searched the wrong database #363
• Fixed minor display issues #281 #365

• Fixed a problem when reloading a relation that changed type (eg. view -> table) #146
• Postico now sets the extra_float_digits parameter to 3 when connecting to the server. This ensures that no information is lost when transmitting float or double values. If setting the parameter to 3 fails (server older than 9.0), Postico falls back to extra_float_digits=2 #289
• Fixed an issue where Postico showed old data when a table or view was replaced with a new one of the same name #398
• Truncating multiple tables now works on old PostgreSQL servers and Redshift.

• In the query view, Postico now immediately displays error messages even when a query returns rows. Additionally, Postico now displays a status icon after the query completes so you immediately see if it succeeded. #302
• The elapsed time for queries is now printed with monospaced digits to avoid jittering.
• Improved performance when editing large SQL scripts in the query view.

• Added a "Reload Current View Only" command ⌥⌘R
• Added a list of keyboard shortcuts to the documentation

Nov 23, 2015

Postico v1.0.1

• Added an option in preferences to change the font size of the SQL Query text view #38
• The interface now refreshes correctly after deleting the last index.
• The SQL Query View now recognises statements containing semicolons #109
• Fixed a bug where the execute button was enabled even though there was no query on the line.
• Postico now correctly handles special characters in filenames (like /) when exporting.
• When saving changes to a table, you now have the option to commit changes even when the number of affected rows does not match what Postico expected #130

  You can now also disable the check altogether with a hidden preference:
  defaults write at.eggerapps.Postico IgnoreAffectedRows 1

Nov 4, 2015

Postico v1.0

• Indexes: Postico now displays table indexes in the table structure view right below the columns. This feature is currently mainly useful for informative purposes: it's convenient to get a quick overview. You can also rename indexes, add comments, or delete indexes. However, there is no graphical user interface yet for creating indexes (I will add that in a future version) #19
• Avoid lost connections: Postico now automatically disconnects from the server before your Mac goes to sleep, or when the connection was idle for 5 minutes. Postico reconnects automatically the next time you try to execute a query. This should hopefully fix the problem of lost connections when servers are configured with a timeout. You can disable the idle timeout in preferences. #66
• Typography: Postico now uses Apple's new system font San Francisco everywhere (except for SQL which is shown in Menlo). I also switched back to fixed width digits for better legibility of tabular data. Additionally, numeric columns are now right-aligned. I've also tweaked all the margins since the different x-height of the new font requires slightly different alignment occasionally.
• PostGIS geometry and geography columns are now displayed as EWKT, which is slightly more readable than the default binary gibberish #92
• Deleting a table that hasn't been saved yet no longer shows an error message and works as expected.
• I added a context menu for table column headers in the SQL Query view #97
• Fixed a deadlock (beachball) in the syntax highlighter #108
• When using the "Copy As Insert" command, Postico now separates rows with newlines #104
• Redesigned foreign key fields in the sidebar for a more consistent look and feel.
• The sidebar now displays column types.
• The tables in the popup menu for foreign keys are now sorted again #85
• The query history popover lets you now insert queries by double clicking or pressing enter #101

October 9, 2015

• Fixed an issue where the Execute button became disabled (eg. after hitting ⌘A)
• Fixed an issue where typing ⌘/ to uncomment lines didn't work

October 8, 2015

Postico v0.27

• System requirements raised to OS X 10.9. Postico wasn't as stable on 10.8 as I wanted it to be. Working around bugs in Mountain Lion and additional QA efforts for the legacy system would have required too much time that I'd rather spend on new features, considering the very low number of users.
• Improved error handling during connection establishment. Postico was unreliable when restoring previously open windows in certain conditions. Problems occurred when the server did not support SSL, or when the SSH server required keyboard-interactive authentication. Connection establishment should now be much more reliable. Also, certificate warnings are now shown only once. #81
• “Execute” (Cmd-Return) now executes only the current query #11
• Improved query history
  • Filter the history to search for specific queries #74
  • Detail view shows the full query.

• The status display now shows "Transaction active" when a transaction is in progress.
• Postico now reloads the full row after making changes.

July 9, 2015

Postico v0.25

• Open new windows from the dock menu. #5
• Open connections now have a "New Window" button in the favorites window #9
• Quickly comment (and uncomment) code in the SQL Query View. Hit Cmd-/ to comment selected lines. Or use Cmd-Alt-/ to comment a block of text. #10

  Another feature that many people have requested. With convenient keyboard shortcuts: Press Cmd-Shift-F and type a few characters to filter tables. Then select a table using up and down arrow keys.
• Syntax highlighting is now enabled for the view definition text field, for SQL expression filters, and for the SQL preview popover.
• Fixed back tab behavior when full keyboard access is turned on. #1
• Hitting escape in text fields now discards changes and aborts editing instead of invoking auto-complete. #2
• Toast schemas and temporary schemas from other connections are now hidden in the sidebar. Additionally, there are now two separate settings for expanding the public schema and hiding system tables. Confusingly, these two settings used to be combined. #12

• Return now commits changes in the sidebar. To insert a newline, type alt-return instead.
• Fixed a problem were license files failed to validate (caused by a bug in Aquatic Prime).

  Postico now includes a custom made syntax highlighter that was designed from the ground up for PostgreSQL. It supports all language features (including peculiarities like nested C-style comments or dollar quoted string constants). The high efficiency parser automatically runs in the background as you type and can handle even very large queries.
• Smart Text Selection
  Double-click quotes to select the entire quoted string. Also works for comments – just double click the start or end markers.

February 2015

Postico – changes from PG Commander

• All new design — optimized for Yosemite
  I have simplified and completely redesigned PG Commander to take full advantage of Yosemite's new design language. The new design degrades gracefully and also looks great on older versions of OS X.
• Table Structure Editor
  The most requested feature in PG Commander is finally here!
  • Rename tables, change schema, change tablespace
  • Rename columns, add columns, remove columns
  • Change column type and default value
  • Add & remove column constraints (Primary Key, Unique, Check, Not Null, Foreign Key)
  • Add comments to tables, columns, and individual constraints
• Table Contents View
  
  • Inline Editor: double click cell to edit
  • Batch editing: insert, update, delete multiple rows in a single transaction
  • Update views
  • Sanity check: PG Commander checks the number of affected rows before committing
  • Row detail view now in the sidebar
  • Update many rows at once with the sidebar
  • Vastly improved scrolling performance
• SQL Query View
  I have completely replaced the SQL Terminal with the all new SQL Query View inspired by Sequel Pro. I thought that the SQL terminal was a good idea, but it had a lot of usability issues. For example, a common complaint from customers was that controls moved around. Also, the terminal had unfixable performance issues.
  • All new design & improved performance
  • Support for large results (more than a million rows)
  • Support for long SQL queries (100.000 lines or more)
  • Query history popup: browse recent queries, clear individual queries from history
• Status Display
  There is now a status display in the title bar. It shows what query is currently executing. When idle, it shows which database you are connected to, and the server version.
• Cancel command
  The keyboard shortcut ⌘. now aborts the current query.
• Improved Reload behavior
  Cached data is now purged more reliably when reloading. The terminal is no longer cleared when you reload.
• Improved change tracking
  PG Commander is now more reliable when you navigate away from a view with unsaved changes, eg. when using the back button.
• New Sidebar Icons
  Updated to a flatter look. Schemas now have a folder icon.
• Table column titles now span multiple lines when there isn't enough space to show them in a single line
• Added a preference to require confirmation before connecting to SSL servers with valid, but unknown certificates
• Added a command to truncate tables.
