You will notice a new database named classicmodels with a few tables. Give a few seconds, expand the MySQL connection node, then right-click the Databases node and hit Refresh. In case you cannot find it, locate the horizontal menu on the SQL Editor, go to the 3rd menu item and click it.
You should receive a popup message saying Connected. While on the same screen, click the Test Connection button. Feel free to change it to whatever you want. I've changed the connection name to local. Let's change the name of this new connection. Step 5: Configure the connection settings Click the dropdown list, locate and select the value of UTC as shown in the diagram below. Locate the Server Time Zone field under Advanced Settings.

In the Password field, enter the password you allocated when installing MySQL Database Server.Īt the bottom of the screen, make sure the Driver name is MySQL 8+. Most of the configuration settings are already populated on the next screen. Make sure to have SQL selected on the left-side menu, then click the icon named MySQL 8+. The process starts by selecting the database you are trying to connect to. Open up DBeaver, click the Database menu and then select the New Database Connection menu item. The installation is a few simple steps and you get it up and running in no time. If you don't have it installed, hit up their website and download a copy of the software.

That's why I am combining all the steps to generate a database dump in one place.ĭisclaimer: I am using a MacBook Pro to demonstrate all the steps. I had to resort to my best friend Google and source the bits and pieces in a few blog posts. DBeaver omits columns with DEFAULT values.While trying to generate a dump database using DBeaver, I stumbled across a few challenging issues. That doesn’t work in Snowflake for UUID-Columns.Ĭan I somehow change this behaviour? How can I insert data in DataGrip into a Snowflake-DB with one of the columns having uuid_string() as default value? The problem is, that the column UUID is not omitted during the INSERT but is in the statement with DEFAULT. If I try to insert a value via DataGrip I get an error:
UUID varchar(36) default uuid_string() not null UUID has UUID_STRING() as default and TST_CHAR is just a string. An example: First I create a simple table with 2 columns. DataGrip seems to generate INSERT-Statements with a DEFAULT for columns that have a default-value instead of omitting these columns.
