• Using pydal for standalone scripts

    From Tobiah@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jun 7 07:57:26 2023
    I am looking into creating a database abstraction library using pydal
    and mysql as the engine. I noticed that I have to specify a 'folder'
    with the connection string to tell pydal where to save "table files".

    So I'll have hundreds of different databases and install this library
    on many machines. Do I need to standardize a place for these files and
    make sure that directory exists on every machine that uses the library?
    It seems rather cumbersome. I mean, couldn't pydal have just put
    this information into the database in its own private table?


    Thanks!
