Database / BetterDB Interview questions
How do you install BetterDB Monitor without Docker?
Run npx @betterdb/monitor to launch it directly with Node.js.
On first run, an interactive setup wizard walks through the database connection, storage backend (SQLite, PostgreSQL, or in-memory), and server settings, saving the result to ~/.betterdb/config.json.
For a persistent install, use npm install -g @betterdb/monitor, then commands like betterdb --setup, betterdb --port 8080, or betterdb --db-host 1.2.3.4.
It requires Node.js 20 or newer, plus better-sqlite3 if you want SQLite storage.
