JetBrains Rider 2024.1 Help

Databases

JetBrains Rider displays databases that you select to be displayed. It can be useful if you have many databases. Also, by using this approach, you define which databases you want to introspect. During introspection, JetBrains Rider loads the metadata from the database and uses this data later.

Databases (Database) can be found in the Database tool window. For the reference on other node and object icons, refer to the Data sources and their elements chapter of Database window topic.

Databases in Database

Create a database

  1. In the Database tool window ( View | Tool Windows | Database) , expand the data source tree until the nodes of databases.

  2. Right-click the data source or database node and select New | Database.

  3. In the Create dialog that opens, enter the name of your database in the Name field.

  4. In the Preview pane, you can view and change the generated SQL code.

  5. Click OK to add your database.

the Create database dialog

Display databases

Show and hide databases

  • In the Database tool window ( View | Tool Windows | Database) , right-click a data source and navigate to Tools | Manage Shown Schemas…. Select or clear checkboxes of databases that you want to display or hide. Press Enter.

  • Click the N of M link near the data source name. In the database and schema selection window, select or clear checkboxes of databases that you want to display or hide. Press Enter.

    Show and hide schemas and databases

Use pattern-based filter

To display and introspect all the databases with names that match a regular expression pattern, do the following:

  1. In the Database tool window ( View | Tool Windows | Database) , click the N of M link near the data source name.

  2. In the databases and schemas selector, click the add pattern button near All databases.

    Pattern-based schema filter
  3. In the new filtering node, define the regular expression. For the syntax, click regex for databases near the input field. For more information about the syntax, refer to Summary of regular-expression constructs.

    Press Enter to apply the filter in the selector.

    Regular expressions in pattern-based schema filter
  4. Press Enter to apply the filter in Database tool window.

    The filtering node with filter can be added under any node, including another filtering node.

Show all the schemas and databases

  • To display all the available databases in the Database tool window ( View | Tool Windows | Database), click the Show Options Menu button and select the All Namespaces option.

    • Enabled

      Show All Namespaces is enabled
    • Disabled

      Show All Namespaces is disabled

Force refresh schema information

The Force Refresh action clears the data source information from cache and loads it again from scratch.

  • In the Database tool window ( View | Tool Windows | Database) , right-click a data source and select Diagnostics | Force Refresh.

Generate a diagram for a dataase

  • In the Database tool window ( View | Tool Windows | Database) , right-click a dataase and select Diagrams | Show Diagram.

Generate a diagram for a database object
