Eclipse extensions

Built on Eclipse, DBeaver lets you install additional extensions (plugins), including those developed specifically for DBeaver.

Install process

Tip

You can also install Eclipse extensions from the command line using the built-in p2 Director Application. For details, see Install Eclipse extensions from the command line.

  1. Open Help -> Install New Software
  2. Choose the extension from the dropdown or paste the extension P2 repository URL into the Work with field and press Enter

  3. Select the extensions you want to install

  4. Click Next -> Finish, then restart DBeaver

Important

Installation may fail if DBeaver is in a write-protected folder (like Program Files, /Applications, or /usr/). Run DBeaver from a writable folder or as Administrator/root.
