Deploy LibreDB Studio

A SQL workspace for browsing and querying your databases from one browser tab.

Deploy on nibrun

LibreDB Studio is a browser workspace for exploring schemas, browsing tables and running SQL against PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite and other databases. See the project for supported engines and features.

Quick start

  1. Choose an admin password and a separate random JWT_SECRET of at least 32 characters. The form asks for both before deploying. Keep the secret: it signs sessions and also protects saved database credentials.
  2. Click Deploy on nibrun. The runtime and application are downloaded automatically; there is nothing to compile or install.
  3. Open the URL and sign in as admin@libredb.org with your chosen password. You can change the email under Advanced configuration → Environment variables before deploying.
  4. Try the bundled sample database or add a connection to a database your app can reach.

Saved settings, connections and local databases live on the persistent volume and survive redeploys. Do not replace JWT_SECRET without planning how to re-enter saved connection passwords.

Good to know

The preset runs the official LibreDB standalone release with Bun in its low-memory mode. It includes the web interface and dependencies. Remote databases must allow connections from your app. AI features need a separately configured model provider.

The initial-data archive contains the application itself, so keep the preset's archive URL when creating the app. Initial data is only imported on creation; updating the runtime or changing the archive URL later does not upgrade the application files already on the volume.
