FYI. Although few if any examples are documented, it is possible to for
example to connect to Microsoft SQLExpress this way
connStr = (
r'Driver={SQL Server};' +
r'Server=(local)\SQLEXPRESS;' +
r'Database=MyDB;' +
r'Trusted_Connection=Yes;'
)
dalstring = 'mssql://' + connStr
db = DAL(dalstring)
So you can put 'mssql:' followed by any connection string which is
acceptable to pyodbc.
The web2py book only gives this connection string example:
mssql://username:password@localhost/test
Likely the same is also true for the other DAL connection types for
whatever driver the type uses.
NOTE: You have to download,and run the pyodbc Windows Installer
from https://code.google.com/p/pyodbc/downloads/list
