It's pretty cool.
Badmin is a mysql database frontend, kind of like phpMyAdmin, only easier to use after a few drinks.
It's not meant to replace phpMyAdmin, but rather as an alternative to it when the time is right — and you know when that is..
badmin isn't designed to help you create tables or manage large scale things other than dumping (which isn't right yet). badmin is really
for small databases that exist already that you need to tweak ever now and again.
... but note that badmin2 is not ready for you. reporting a bug only means only that you love me enough to think of me


badmin is really only effective on tables where the first column is the primary or otherwise identifiable index, but it can use that assumption to take a look ahead at a related table. Users are free to set these at any time, and are saved on the server. Take for example, the tables decks and masterlist. masterlist has a bunch of cards using a cardID index, and decks has instances of those cards tied to players, also using cardID. Making the assumption that decks.cardID = masterlist.cardID , I can create a preference to see masterlist.cardName instead. Ordinarily, you'd be able to click on the raw value to edit like a string or integer, but now you get a drop down of other existing cardNames, and once committed register the correct cardID.
