Connection String Parser
Break apart database connection strings for Postgres, MySQL, Snowflake, Redis and Kafka without pasting credentials into a public parser. DataEngUtils extracts host, port, database, user and query parameters locally — critical when rotating secrets, debugging VPN issues or documenting which environment a stale .env entry points to. Data platform teams use it because connection URIs show up in logs, Helm values and incident threads where exfiltrating even redacted strings to a website is unacceptable. The parser keeps passwords masked while still showing the parameters you need to compare staging against production endpoints.
Open it in the app
Connection String Parser runs in the DataEngUtils browser app on a Rust engine (Apache Arrow) compiled to WebAssembly — free to use, entirely client-side, and nothing is uploaded.
How it works
1. Paste a URI
Drop a postgres://, mysql://, snowflake://, redis:// or kafka:// string into the parser.
2. Review the components
See normalized fields, warnings and flags such as sslmode, with the password masked.
3. Copy safe snippets
Share host and database names without exposing passwords in screenshots or tickets.
Why not use an online tool?
Online inspectors tools require uploading your pipeline inputs to a third-party server. For production work, that is a security and compliance risk. DataEngUtils runs a client-side engine in your browser — same convenience, none of the exposure.
