I want to thank you also for this PostgreSQL support. I just happen to be starting to play with middle kit, the timing of this thread is uncanny. Perhaps I'll work on datetime support since I will probably need it.

Re: MiddleKit PostgreSQL support

Hi Diogo,
Thanks for asking. Last year I did some work with PostgreSQL and
MiddleKit, and had lots of local changes which I"ve been meaning to commit.
Specifically, I made it so that for each table, a corresponding postgres
sequence is created, which is used for getting the next serial number
when an object is added to the data store. There were a bunch of other
changes, too, but that was the most significant.
There are several different python bindings for PostgreSQL, but AFAICT
there are only two which are maintained: the bindings included with
PostgreSQL itself, and psycopg. I can"t remember exactly why, but at that
time I had some problems with PostgreSQL"s bindings, and so I used pscyopg.
I"ve just checked in these changes, so please do a fresh CVS checkout (it
may take a few hours to become available on sourceforge"s anon CVS, I"m not
sure) and take a look. Since I haven"t really used it since last year,
there might be a few things which aren"t working any more (due to other
changes in MK), and I think there are a few MK datatypes which still need to
be implemented for PostgreSQL (i.e. datetime?).
If you improve the support further, please submit patches via sourceforge,
and maybe send me a heads-up, too, so that I notice. :)
peace,
Jason
