LevelDB Viewer
VS Code extension for browsing LevelDB databases.
中文文档
Features
- Open a LevelDB database folder manually.
- Detect Electron project databases under
%APPDATA%/<package.json name>/db.
- Configure a workspace-specific absolute database path.
- Browse entries in table or tree mode.
- Search keys and values.
- Format and highlight JSON values.
- Refresh the current database snapshot.
Usage
Run LevelDB Viewer: Open Database from the command palette and select a LevelDB directory.
The extension copies the database into a temporary snapshot before reading, excluding the LOCK file. This makes it safer to inspect databases that may be locked by another process.
AppData Quick Open
The status bar quick open first checks this workspace setting:
{
"leveldbViewer.databasePath": "C:\\Users\\you\\AppData\\Roaming\\my-electron-app\\db"
}
If leveldbViewer.databasePath is set, it must be an absolute path and must point to a LevelDB database directory.
When a workspace is open, the extension checks whether the workspace is an Electron project. The project is considered Electron-based when its package.json has electron in dependencies or devDependencies.
If no explicit database path is configured and an Electron project is detected, the extension reads the package.json name field and checks:
%APPDATA%/<package.json name>/db
If that folder looks like a LevelDB database, a LevelDB button appears in the status bar.
Settings
leveldbViewer.databasePath: absolute LevelDB database path. This is useful in workspace settings so it only applies to the current project.
Project-only settings can be stored in:
<project>/.vscode/settings.json
