RapiDB — Database Client for VS Code

PostgreSQL · MySQL · MSSQL · SQLite · MariaDB · Oracle

All in one place. Never leaving your editor.

---

You're deep in the code. Something's off in the data. Now you have to alt-tab to DBeaver, wait for it to wake up, click through five menus...

RapiDB kills that context switch. Your database lives in the sidebar — same window, same shortcuts, same theme.

⚡ What it actually does

🔌 Connect to anything

PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, SQL Server, SQLite, MariaDB, Oracle — all supported out of the box. SSL, self-signed certs, Oracle service names and Thick Mode with Instant Client, connection folders to keep things organized.

🌲 Browse your schema without a single query

The Database Explorer tree expands into databases → schemas → tables, views, functions, and stored procedures. Right-click any table to grab its name, open the data viewer, inspect the schema, or pull the DDL — no typing required.

🗂️ Query History & Bookmarks

Every query you run lands in Query History — click any entry to reopen it in the editor. Queries you want to keep forever go into Bookmarks with a single press. Both limits are configurable.

✏️ A real SQL editor, not a textarea

The query editor runs on Monaco — the same engine as VS Code itself. You get:

• 🎨 Syntax highlighting & auto-formatting
• 🧠 Schema-aware autocompletion — knows your actual tables and columns
• ⌨️ Ctrl+Enter / F5 to run · Select a fragment to run just that part
• ↕️ Drag the divider to resize editor vs results

📊 Results that don't freeze at 10k rows

Results land in a virtualized table — no jank, no browser tab hanging:

• Sort by any column · Resize columns · Alternating row stripes
• NULL values are styled differently · Booleans are colored
• Execution time shown right in the toolbar
• Export to CSV or JSON in one click

If results are truncated, a warning tells you exactly how many rows were cut and how to lift the limit.

✍️ Browse and edit table data

Click any table → the Table Data Viewer opens:

🔍 Schema inspector

Right-click → Open Schema to see every column with its type, nullability, default value, and PK / FK badges. Indexes and foreign keys get their own sections.

Everything you'd normally Google information_schema for — one click away.
