PostgreSQL Schema Visualizer
VibeSchema is ideal for quickly visualizing your PostgreSQL database schemas. Paste your PostgreSQL DDL and go from code to a pretty ER diagram in seconds using a smart auto-layout feature.
To do this, follow these steps:
- Click the button below to open the schema visualizer in PostgreSQL mode
- Go to Code view in the top bar and paste your PostgreSQL DDL (CREATE TABLE statements).
- The Auto-Layout feature automatically runs. Go to Diagram view to see the result!
From there you may decide to export your ER diagram as a clean .png file.
Try it out in the Schema Visualizer - fully free, no sign-up.
Refining the Entity-Relationship Diagram
VibeSchema’s Auto-Layout attempts to minimize overlap between relationships and tables. However, if you are still not satisfied with the visualization, you can perfect the ER diagram by dragging tables around manually.
For complex PostgreSQL schemas, overlap between tables and relationships might be inevitable. For those cases, there is a toggle under “View” to show relationships above tables, at an opacity that still allows you to read the tables easily. The idea behind this is that data specialists have better ways to spend their time than ensuring that relationships don’t overlap with tables.
Does your schema contain enums? With a toggle under “View” you can choose whether these should be included in the PostgreSQL schema visualization.
Satisfied with your schema visualization? Share it with colleagues with either a code export of the underlying code, or a .png download of the ER diagram. Note that you can choose to include the position comments in your code exports, allowing you to version-control the ideal layout of your database schemas.
