Forge Database Manager

Forge 1.3.4 opens your files where they are, gives every statement its own result, and puts the results grid on the keyboard. FILES OPENED IN PLACE A DuckDB, SQLite, CSV, JSON, or SQL dump file you choose is no longer copied into Forge: it opens in place, and a file you move or rename is found again. When a dlt pipeline or a script writes to the same DuckDB or SQLite file, Refresh shows the new data; CSV, JSON, and SQL dump files are read when the connection opens. To write to a SQLite or DuckDB file outside Forge's own folder, allow access to its folder once (the button explains why). Connections created earlier keep their copy until you choose the file again. QUERY EDITOR Several statements separated by semicolons give one result per statement, with a selector above the grid. psql-style parameters :name, :'name', and :"name" work alongside {{name}} (on Oracle, :name stays a server bind variable). The autocomplete popup on Mac no longer replaces the schema you typed before the dot, and a semicolon typed while the popup is open leaves your text intact. Outside ClickHouse, a table or column named settings or format no longer breaks the default LIMIT. RESULTS GRID The selected row keeps keyboard focus: Up/Down, Home/End, and Page Up/Down move the selection, Left/Right pick a cell, Return edits that cell in an editable table, and Escape cancels. Command-C copies the selected row as tab-separated text, or the picked cell. The inspector has a Values pane showing every column of the selected row, in the data browser and in query results. On iPhone, Row Details in the long-press menu shows the same list.

Forge 1.3 adds two enterprise databases and three Apple-native power features. MICROSOFT SQL SERVER (+ AZURE SQL) Connect to any SQL Server 2008+ or Azure SQL instance — pure Swift TDS protocol over NIO, no driver to install, no ODBC. SQL auth, TLS handshake (including Azure-required encryption), full schema introspection of databases, tables, columns, primary keys, foreign keys, and indexes via sys catalogs. Run T-SQL queries with familiar SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. SNOWFLAKE Native Snowflake support via the SQL API v2 with key-pair authentication. Paste your RSA private key into the password field once and Forge mints a fresh JWT before every query — no passwords, no OAuth dance, no SnowSQL CLI. Browse databases, schemas, tables, columns, and primary keys with the same UI as every other engine. LIVE DATA (auto-refresh) A new toggle in the Data Browser toolbar re-runs your query at the interval you pick (5 seconds to 5 minutes). New rows fade in green, changed cells light up yellow. Pauses automatically when you're editing a row or when the previous fetch is still in flight. SPOTLIGHT Saved queries and connections are indexed in Spotlight. Tap a result anywhere on macOS or iOS to jump straight into Forge with context. Search by title, by SQL fragment, or by tag. SHORTCUTS Three new App Intents: list connections, test a connection (ping), and run a saved query against any connection. Build your own Shortcuts on macOS and iOS, trigger them from Siri, the Touch Bar, the menu bar, or the Shortcuts app. QUALITY OF LIFE Forge now supports 22 data sources — five more than Beekeeper Ultimate. The Microsoft SQL Server, Snowflake, DuckDB, Cassandra, and ScyllaDB additions span this and the 1.2 cycles.
