SQLite Manager not compatible with latest Firefox #62

Open danmichaelo opened 7 years ago

danmichaelo commented 7 years ago

Firefox 57 is great, but it comes with a new extension system, and it seems like there is no easy way to migrate SQLite Manager to it: https://github.com/lazierthanthou/sqlite-manager/issues/75#issuecomment-328328216 , so we might need to find a replacement.

Thanks @danmichaelo. This issue is being discussed here https://github.com/datacarpentry/sql-ecology-lesson/issues/199 and it looks like people are testing alternatives. I suggest we monitor that discussion and follow their suggestion. Thoughts?

danmichaelo commented 7 years ago

Good idea, thanks for pointing to the discussion!

Looks like SQLiteStudio might be a good replacement. I had a play (on my mac) and didn't run into any issues. Would you like to take a look too? @danmichaelo @elainewong

A possible workaround is to use Docker. I quickly forked the chrisdaish/docker-firefox repository in order to downgrade it to a lower version.

Version might be too low, but I downgraded to version 28. git clone -b version28 https://github.com/majisti/docker-firefox.git and then you can run make. It will basically launch an instance of an older version of Firefox with a named volume through X Server (only tested on Ubuntu).

You can then install the SQLite Manager plugin there.
