Debugging WebSQL databases in Google Chrome is straight forward, right? Just open up the developer tools (⌘ + ⇧ + I) go to the Resources
Tab and select Databases
. You can poke through the WebSQL databases of the current website there.
But this won’t work if you are trying to inspect WebSQL Databases which have been created by a WebWorker! They just won’t show up in the Databases
Tab.
Luckily you can work around this problem easily: Chrome stores all WebSQL Databases locally on a per-domain basis at ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/databases
.
$ find .
.
./Databases.db
./http_slides.html5rocks.com_0

Just grab the next best SQLite editor for OSX and get going again ;)
