What is it?
Adminer is a web-based database management tool written in PHP. The whole application is distributed as one PHP file that you upload to a web server, so there is nothing else to install or configure on the target host.
It connects to MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, SQLite, MS SQL and Oracle, and plugins extend it to systems such as Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, MongoDB, Redis, ClickHouse and Firebird. A companion project, Adminer Editor, provides a simpler data-editing interface for end users.
The repository includes the development sources along with a compile script that produces the single-file build. The compiled file runs on PHP 5.3 and later, while the source code requires PHP 7.4 or later.
