sqledit

PYTHON-SQLEDIT(1)					      General Commands Manual						 PYTHON-SQLEDIT(1)

NAME

       sqledit - GUI to edit databases

SYNOPSIS

       sqledit [options][nick][URI][-ttable][-m][-uURL][-d][-D] [-ffield_list][-l]

DESCRIPTION

       sqledit	is  a  GUI to edit database *data* (as opposed to database schemas).  As sqledit is a GUI it's bettere explained in the html page,
       please visit http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/sqlkit/sqledit.html.

       When opened with no options you are presented an entry to fill the database URI or a button to start a demo (if found on your system)

OPTIONS

       These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with  two  dashes  (`-').   A  summary  of  options	is
       included below.	For a complete description, see the Info files.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

       -v, --version
	      Show version of program.

       -l, --load
	      Directly load data in tables when opened.

       -f, --field_list
	      only show the listed fields (comma separated list).

       -n, --nick
	      read options from nick definition (read NICKs below)

       -u, --nick
	      open the URL. Acceptable formats are any format acceptable by sqlalchemy:
	      engine://user:pass@host/dbname
	      Acceptable     engines	 depend     on	   which     drivers	 you	 have	 in    your    systems.    Have    a	look	at
	      http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/wiki/DatabaseNotes

       -o, --order_by
	      define the order by column

       -m, --mask
	      Open the sqltable with a mask (form) view.

       -T, --sqltable
	      Open the sqltable with a table view (default)

NICKs
       Sqledit allows you to write nicks in file .sqleditdb. A nick looks like the following:
       [film]
       URL = sqlite:////home/sandro/src/django/siti/cinemino/cinemino.db

       [banca]
       URL = postgres://sandro:vicie@localhost:5432/banca
       table = conti_banche
       field_list = data tipo descrizione eu_in eu_out banca edit classe data_val
       order_by = data

       If you define a nick you can call sqledit simply as:

       sqledit film sqledit film -t director

       At present you need to edit the nick by hand

       The programs are documented fully in the web site http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/sqlkit/sqledit.html

SQLKIT

       Sqledit is just an application that shows the power of the python package sqlkit.  Programming directly with python you can build much more
       interesting interfaces. The demo tour show what can be done in very few lines of code.

EXAMPLES

       sqledit sqledit postgres://localhost/sia sqledit postgres://localhost/sia -m (opens a mask view)

TUTORIAL

       You can read a tutorial on the main features of sqledit at http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/sqlkit/tutorial.html
