_Work in progress_ # Introduction The Data Explorer is a tool in RethinkDB’s web interface.

# Tips If you write a closing quote/parenthesis and the next character is a closing quote/parenthesis, your cursor will just move to the right.

You can auto complete databases and tables names by hitting TAB when you are inside ‘.db()`, `.dbDrop()`, `.table()`, `.tableDrop()`.

Shortcuts:

  • Use Tab to go through the suggestions (or Shift+Tab to go in the other way around).

  • Hit Esc to hide the suggestions.

  • Hit Tab to bring back the suggestions if you previsously hide them.

  • Execute a query: Ctrl+Enter or Shift+Enter.

  • Navigate through your history with Alt+Arrows Up/Down.

# Limitations The Data Explorer uses the JavaScript driver, which requires browser support for DataView, Uint8Array objects and the ability to overwrite __proto__. Browsers that don’t expose these objects are not supported. These browsers have been tested and know to work with the Data Explorer:

  • Chrome 9 or higher

  • Firefox 15 or higher

  • Safari 6.02 or higher

  • Opera 1.62 or higher

The data explorer doesn’t handle well long lines (like 50k characters). If you want to import a lot of data, try to make sure that your json string contains new lines
