Re: Cooperation

Hi Robert, at least for me, your idea is fine, but let me clarify something, in your proposal the user is able to see a graphic representation of database (including tables, views, relationships, etc) with reverse engineering, and then user can modified this representation and the scripts that do this task are generated.

I can tell you that a good start point can be the  graphical query builder of pgAdmin (partially finished but the next week I restart their development), is possible to adapt this part of pgAdmin to accomplish this task and I can help you if you like.

You can try here the september version (oh I have been a little lazy :( I must finish this soon):

The next question will be for the community, asking what do they think about this addon for pgAdmin?

But In fact for me, this addon can be useful for a future entity relationship modeler, if we use the two step generation of database (logic or conceptual data model that in turn is mapped to a physical model during physical design ). This addon can be transform later in the physical designer part of the modeler. Or we can start thinking in the ER modeler and start the design of this tool with that idea in our goal.
