DB Navigator for Jetbrains PHPStorm and WebStorm via SSH

I can connect to my db no problem via the standard PhpStorm / WebStorm db window by using the "configure ssh" option. I would like to use the DB Navigator though as it has many more features.

However, my issue is that I can only connect to my DB's via a SSH tunnel. They are not publicly accessible and I do not have a VPN to the network.

Can I use the DB Navigator plugin? I cannot seem to find a place to set up the SSH tunnel.

In IntelliJ Idea you have bundled "Database support" plugin (probably the same in other JB ides), where you can configure data source over ssh tunnel. Do to this you have to:

  1. Open "Database" plugin window
  2. Add -> Data Source -> MySQL
  3. Enter database properties:
    • host: localhost
    • username and passowrd to databse
  4. Click "Configure SSH"
    • check Use SSH tunnel
    • fill connection details
