Project Description
Introduction
plonedbflay generates a simple - but productive - web interface for Posgresql databases. The target user is a secretary, rather than a database administrator. (You will need a database administrator to configure the script initially.)
plonedbflay lets users view data, edit data, copy data, and delete data in multiple databases.
Notable Features
The basic features:
- View, edit, copy, delete data in multiple databases.
- Generates query forms for searching through the database.
- Pre-defined queries can be used instead of a query form.
- Can pre-populate query form fields with foreign keys, or
- can pre-populate query form fields with existing data.
- Can auto-increment serial-type fields when adding new data.
- Pre-defined sorts, or click on field label to sort by that field.
- *, % and spaces are interpreted as multi-character wildcards.
Fancy features for advanced applications:
- Apply regexp translations to certain fields - for instance, to convert part numbers into weblinks to related external websites (like an online catalog). You can see an example of this in the screenshot above - the Digi-Key stock numbers (which happen to end with "-ND") are formed into hyperlinks to the Digi-Key web site!
- Prefix data in certain fields with a URL (for instance, when the database stores a file name)
