# Kahuna, the IndexedDB-Manager
Kahuna is a browser extension for Firefox and Chromium based browsers to manage IndexedDB databases. It can be used to create databases and modify their structure, as well as to view, query, edit, import and export the data they contain.
## Features
* signals with its icon in the browser's address bar when IndexedDB databases exist for a visited website
* displays lists of the found databases and tables (aka object stores)
* can create new databases, as well as copy and delete existing databases
* its schema editor can be used to create and delete tables, and to modify the indexes of tables
* 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
## Installation
Please download and install the extension from the [Chrome Web Store](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/kahuna/ilafpdbgcaodnkdklgemggjamhpdjile) for Chrome and Chromium based browsers such as Edge, Brave, and Opera, and from the [Firefox Addons Page](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kahuna-the-indexeddb-manager) for Firefox.
## Documentation
The documentation for the latest version is available at [hummingme.github.io/kahuna-docs/](https://hummingme.github.io/kahuna-docs/).
## Build and Install from Source
```sh
git clone https://github.com/hummingme/kahuna.git
cd kahuna
npm install
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](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/get-started/tutorial/hello-world#load-unpacked).
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`. Installing the unpacked extension is also possible by visiting `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox` and using _Load Temporary Addon_, but this must be repeated after each restart.
