>.< DON'T DO IT! The DAL is ment for functional programming... so be careful if you have to use it in a class based system. Plus you will have to have your stand alone application manage the .table files too. Just keep it in mind.
In any case... You will need. gluon/LICENSE gluon/sql.py gluon/portalocker.py gluon/utils.py Also, you will NOT need validators.. so edit gluon/sql.py and comment out anything to do with the following from serializers import json - remove this, it conflicts with the real version of simplejson installed from pypi. from http import HTTP -- doubt you will be making any http exceptions import validators -- unless you are somehow using SQLFORM, you dont need this. Be sure to remove all traces of validators from the rest of sql.py Just do a search for "validators" and remove that code. Yay, you now have a stand alone DAL... see how easy that was to de-couple things?! =) -- Thadeus On Fri, Aug 27, 2010 at 6:34 PM, Sujan Shakya <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I'm going to have to use a MySQL orm in a project in near future. > Do you think web2py DAL is good for that purpose regarding scalability > and performance ? > And what files do I need to import or execute to use only web2py DAL ? > > Thanks. >
