Tools
PgArachne is supported by a set of browser-based tools that simplify development, testing, and API exploration. All tools are single HTML files — no build step, no dependencies.
PgArachne Explorer
A full-featured web UI to browse your API, test functions, and view auto-generated documentation. Supports both direct credentials (HTTP Basic Auth) and Bearer token authentication.
SSE Tester
Subscribe to one or more PostgreSQL NOTIFY channels over a live Server-Sent Events connection. Supports all three authentication methods and displays JSON events with syntax highlighting.
JWT Getter
Exchange a PostgreSQL username and password for a short-lived JWT via the /token endpoint (HTTP Basic credentials). Shows the decoded payload and expiry time — useful for debugging token-based flows.
JWT Signer
Generate JWTs locally in the browser by entering JWT_SECRET by hand — no database or server needed. Set the role, database, lifetime and extra claims, even an already expired token for testing. Includes full security warnings.
PgArachne Toolbar (macOS)
A native macOS application that lives in your menu bar. Manage multiple PgArachne instances, view live logs, and monitor metrics with a single click.
