• tables can be created and deleted, the indexes of tables can be modified
• displays the data of a table page by page and enables the editing and deletion of data records
• Filters can be configured and combined for all data fields to display or export a selection of the data contained in a table
• imports and exports databases in dexie format
• imports and exports tables in dexie, json and csv format, as well as selected data records in json and csv format
• enables the entry and execution of arbitrary JavaScript code to modify databases, tables or data as desired

Installation

Please download and install the extension from the Chrome Web Store for Chrome and Chromium based browsers such as Edge, Brave, and Opera, and from the Firefox Addons Page for Firefox.

Sorry, the user documentation is still work in progress, but will be available here soon!

Build and Install from Source

git clone https://github.com/hummingme/kahuna.git
cd kahuna

npm run release firefox & npm run release chromium

Afterwards the packages firefox.zip and chromium.zip are located within the build/ directory. The subdirectories build/firefox/ and build/chromium/ contain the unpacked extensions.

To install Kahuna on Chrome, follow this instructions for unpacked extensions.

With Firefox, the packed extension firefox.zip can be installed in ESR-, Developer- and Nightly releases after toggling xpinstall.signatures.required: false in about:config.
