Bookmarks with no passwords

Author: daniCreated Feb 22, 2023Updated Nov 11, 2025

Hi.

Since pgweb 0.13, bookmarks with no password defined aren't working anymore (it was OK in 0.12).

I'm running pgweb with the following args

bash
opt/pgweb/bin/pgweb \
             --listen 8086 \
             --bind 127.0.0.1 \
             --bookmarks-dir=/opt/pgweb/bookmarks \
             --no-ssh \
             --sessions \
             --skip-open \
             --readonly

In /opt/pgweb/bookmarks, I create files like

host = "localhost"
database = "appdb"
port = 5432
user = "fr00000113"

The idea is to have host, db, user preconfigured when selecting the bookmark, but I must manually enter the DB password.

Since 0.13.0 (and still in 0.14.0), when selecting a bookmark, all the fields are greyed out, so I cannot enter the password anymore
