Framework guides

Keep your framework. Change the connection string.

All docsQuickstartConnections

Works with the usual suspects

  • Prisma with DATABASE_URL or directUrl
  • Drizzle with the normal Postgres driver
  • Rails and Django using their standard Postgres settings
  • psql, TablePlus, DataGrip, pgAdmin, and other SQL clients

Store the direct or pooled URL in environment variables and keep the rest of your framework configuration boring. That is the point.

DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:password@host:5432/db?sslmode=require

Connections

CapyDB speaks normal Postgres. One direct URL, one pooled URL, both usable from standard clients and frameworks.

Preview databases

Disposable Postgres databases for testing, review apps, debugging, and other controlled forms of chaos.
