Обсуждение: ER diagrams

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good utility that can create
an ER diagram from a Postgresql database?  I've got a script that
creates a complex arrangement of tables from some source data and I'm
trying to make sense of it all.

Thanks,
Tim Bowden

   I don't know what an ER diagram is, but I use something called
'postgresql autodoc' to get a good overview of postgresql databases.

   You can find it here: http://www.rbt.ca/autodoc/

Tim,

After a lot of searching for a similar product I would recommend the
HappyFish database design tool.  It offers a good range of features for
use on multiple RDBMs (including Postgres) and a fantastic level of
support by the developers.  Check it out here:

Cheers,
Joel

Hi All,

Another is aquadata: http://www.aquafold.com/ Not free, but can reverse
engineer, but not the best looking ER out there.
Does anyone know a free one for Mac with high quality images?

Cheers,
Noel
