Postgresql database documentation

I'm looking for a FREE tool which allows to generate documentation for the DB schema, tables, column, keys, indices as a PDF or HTML format like the "Toad Data Modeler" which is a commecial tool.

I'm using Postgresql 9.2.

Could you suggest me some documentation generator?

Thanks

Solution

  • I've generally found SchemaSpy (git repo) useful for this purpose. It gets the job done with minimal pain and produces quite useful output. The cross-linked multi-page HTML output is particularly useful.
