The WordPress.com stats plugin which powers the app has been migrated to the Jetpack plugin. Alongside this, WordPress API keys which are needed to log into the stats server are to be retired. Unfortunately, the amount of work needed to update Statistics so that it works with this new system is simply too extensive to justify.
Unfortunately, in my haste to release a fix for the crashes in Base 2.4, version 2.4.1 did not completely address the root of the problem. In order to limit the number of people downloading a broken release, I reverted back to 2.3.1 on this website and temporarily removed Base from sale on the Mac App Store.
The previous update to Base had a bug which caused a crash on launch for users running Mac OS 10.7. It did not affect users on 10.8 or newer.
Version 2.4.1 of Base fixes this bug and is available immediately for download from this site. People who have purchased Base via the Mac App Store will have to wait a little longer as the update must be approved by Apple. I have requested an expedited review, so hopefully this will not take long.
Base 2.4 is now available to download, for both web and App Store users. This update includes both new features and some bug fixes.
The main points for this version are a new logging system, with fast filtering and simplified preferences and improvements to the custom SQL tab.
After running your own statements, you can now get a breakdown of each statements execution time.
I am delighted to announce the release of a new app, Filler.
Filler is for making data. It began life as an internal testing tool, for creating multi-gigabyte databases and has slowly expanded with the addition of more datatypes and formats that can be created. It can generate many different data types, from the basics like random numbers and strings to names and GPS coordinates. These rows of data can be generated by the million as any one of several different file types.
Base 2.3 is now available to download, for both web and App Store users.
This update contains a range of changes, with highlights including a new visual pragma editor and line numbers displayed in data tables. For users outside the App Store it is also signed ready for Gatekeeper in Mountain Lion.
Base 2.2.1 is now available to download, for both web and App Store users.
This is a bug fix update, taking care of some problems with data filters, CSV importing and the table editor. A full list of changes can be read in the release notes
Base 2.2 is now available to download, for both web and App Store users.
Browsing table data has been tweaked so that BLOB data fields are now displayed as a clip icon instead of garbled text. Double-clicking on a BLOB icon will show an editor sheet, pre-loaded with a viewer suitable for that data. It knows the different between text and images and will also attempt to discover the correct file extension for any other data you may throw at it.
