PHPStorm / Intellij - Export / Import Database Settings

intellij-idea, phpstorm

Solution

As I understand you are talking about Database tool window.

Such settings are saved in `dataSources.ids/.xml` pair of files. Location depends on how Data Source was declared:

- Project level -- in .idea subfolder next to other project settings

- Globally -- in `config\options\` folder (e.g. `C:\Users\USERNAME\.WebIde60\config\options\` on Windows 7)

Problem

These two IDE's have a great database query engine that I rely on. But I sometimes work on multiple machines. I know that I can export and import IDE settings, but is there a way that I can export/import database settings from one machine to another? I've looked and grepped through the file structure, but haven't found anything. I am thinking it must be encrypted somewhere. Thanks.
