One operational workspace for your stack.
Connect, explore and operate the data and infrastructure tools you already run.
Spend less time setting up tooling
A data stack can mean a separate interface, container, configuration, and port for every service. DSUI gives the tools you already run one consistent workspace.
Get started
Run DSUI on your host for local development and project files:
npx @northgraindata/dsui
DSUI loads ./dsui.yaml when present and keeps local state in
~/.local/share/dsui.
The first local run also generates ~/.local/share/dsui/.master-key for
encrypting connections added through the UI. Keep it with the local data
directory; set DSUI_MASTER_KEY explicitly for controlled deployments.
Docker deployment
Use Docker when you want an isolated, reproducible deployment. It connects to services reachable from the container. If an adapter requires an executable or runtime, provide it in the image used to run DSUI.
One setup, across your stack
Configure a DuckDB database in dsui.yaml:
services: - id: warehouse adapter: duckdb name: Analytics warehouse connection: method: file path: /data/warehouse.duckdb
Run DSUI alongside it in docker-compose.yml:
services: dsui: image: ghcr.io/northgraindata/dsui:latest ports: - "4192:4192" environment: DSUI_CONFIG: /etc/dsui/dsui.yaml volumes: - ./dsui.yaml:/etc/dsui/dsui.yaml:ro - dsui-data:/data volumes: dsui-data:
Start the workspace:
docker compose up -d
Open http://localhost:4192. DSUI loads its bundled DuckDB adapter and opens the database file in the persistent /data volume. Add your other services to the same dsui.yaml and Compose network.
Adapters
Connect Apache Airflow, dbt, PostgreSQL, Trino, S3-compatible storage such as MinIO, and DuckDB through one workspace.

Need another tool? The TypeScript Adapter SDK lets you bring internal services and community adapters into the same workspace.
DSUI runs in your environment and keeps its local state in /data. It does not need a separate database or control plane. The official container image is published through GitHub Container Registry:
docker pull ghcr.io/northgraindata/dsui:latest
