Admin panel for postgresql on Node.js server

Question

I want to host a Node project running with a postgreSQL db. However, when it is on the server I won't have a UI tool to easily view database entries. Does anyone know how I would go about creating a /admin domain to view / edit my postgreSQL db through an admin panel?

I'm using https://github.com/brianc/node-postgres as the client.

If you want to use DB admin tools on a remote server you have a few options:

• ssh in and use psql . Easiest once you learn your way around psql .

• Use PgAdmin-III via an SSL connection to the sever, or using its ssh tunnel features

• Set up a web-based tool like phpPgAdmin on your web server, properly locked down, and access it over the browser.

Personally I'd stick with the basics.
