Additional info.

I found the documentation on desktop deployment
https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/development/desktop_deployment.html

For Mac, it indicates that configuration settings are saved in a .plist file.


I’ll pursue editing that file next week.  In theory XCode is the easy way to do 
the edits.  I’ll have to upgrade my OS though to get it installed.

Thanks for the help Murtuza.

Subject: Re: Mac client - reconnecting to existing server

Hi,

By default pgAdmin4 opens port randomly, but there is an option to choose 
static port, once you set the port, you can bookmark the link.

1.    Click on the pgAdmin 4 tray-icon
2.    Click "Configure..."
3.    Check the box labeled "Fixed Port Number?"
4.    Enter the desired port number in the field next to it
5.    Restart pgadmin and try again.

I think I’m missing something obvious and easy.  With the newer pgAdmins that 
make use of a service + web page for the application, is there a way to close 
the web page tab, and then reconnect to that existing server easily?  Such as a 
generic URL that doesn’t include the port #.

I’ve found that if I save the URL as a bookmark, then invariably the port saved 
in the URL is incorrect for the current server and I can’t reconnect.  So 
anytime I close the tab, next time I want pgAdmin, I go find the service and 
kill it, and then relaunch.

Or alternatively, is there an actual Mac App as there used to be, before the 
web page app?
