LDB Viewer

The tool accepts LevelDB-style stores provided as a single .ldb file or as a folder containing LevelDB segments (ldb, log, and manifest fragments). It performs a read-only analysis that yields a readable map of the database contents, including key presence, sample values, and high level metrics. It does not modify the source data and is suitable for debugging, validation, data recovery planning, and verification of backups. Results are produced in a structured format suitable for programmatic consumption.
Conceptually, the tool treats the store as a sequence of key/value entries encoded by LevelDB. It employs a streaming parser to scan available segments without loading the entire database into memory, decodes values with common data types (string, integer, or binary) and presents both raw and decoded representations. You can choose to render values as UTF-8 text or as hexadecimal for non-text data, and you can limit the number of samples to keep the examination fast and focused.
Core outputs include total key count, alphabetical or byte-order min/max keys, a sample of representative key/value pairs, and a summary of data quality signals (missing values, unexpected types). Optional exports enable JSON or CSV consumption in pipelines. The tool is designed for diverse workflows: quick checks after migrations, backup verification, and data-forensics planning when LevelDB stores appear in portable formats.
Unique value propositions include support for both individual .ldb files and folder-based LevelDB stores, strict read-only operation to protect data, and decoding options that adapt to practical use cases. Use cases span development debugging, QA validation, and lightweight data discovery without establishing a full database environment.
