# qbolt

A graphical database manager for BoltDB.

QBolt allows you to graphically view and edit the content of Bolt databases.

The project consists of two parts; a C binding (CGo) for the embeddable Bolt database engine, and a graphical interface built in C++/Qt that links to it.

Written in C++ (Qt), Golang (CGo)

## Features

- Open existing database or create new database
- Option to open database as readonly for concurrent use
- Create, list, edit and delete keys and buckets (including nested buckets)
- Safe for use with arbitrary binary key/bucket names (new ones created in UTF-8)
- View database and bucket statistics
- 100% Bolt compatibility via the real codebase
- Tested working on both Windows and Linux

## License

Source code content of `qbolt-x.x.x-src.tar.gz` is released under the ISC license.
BoltDB is released under the MIT license.
The Windows binary is released under LGPL-3+ owing to the static copy of Qt.
