I've been intentionally holding off on announcing this work (because it's not even close to being ready for practical use yet), but I've been working with Eric Davies on a generic database access module in Julia called DBI:
https://github.com/johnmyleswhite/DBI.jl The goal of DBI is to provide a consistent interface that specific database drivers can implement. Between Eric and me, some work's been done on implementing this for SQLite, MySQL and Postgres: https://github.com/johnmyleswhite/SQLite.jl https://github.com/johnmyleswhite/MySQL.jl https://github.com/iamed2/PostgreSQL.jl I've unfortunately slowed down so that I can fix up DataFrames, but I've seen a bunch of people working on database support recently and wanted to encourage collaboration early on. Would be great to get everyone interested in database support to work together. I can't be in charge of this for another few weeks, but wanted to start a discussion so that everyone can collaborate effectively. -- John
