PG Service Parser Plugin

QGIS plugin to view, edit or copy PG service (i.e., pg_service.conf) entries for PostgreSQL connections.

This plugin is built on top of pgserviceparser, a standalone Python library (available on PyPI) for reading, writing, and managing PostgreSQL service files. The library also provides its own GUI module that can be used independently of QGIS.

Features

  • Create a pg_service.conf file at the default location if one doesn't exist yet.
  • Edit PG service entries — add, remove, rename, duplicate services and their settings.
  • Copy settings between services using shortcuts for frequent overwrite operations.
  • Create QGIS connections to PostgreSQL databases directly from your PG services.
  • Context actions for PostgreSQL layers — create services from layer connections, register connections in QGIS, or switch layers to an existing PG service.
