ANNOUNCE: sqlkit 0.9.4
April, 11 - 2011
I'm happy to announce release 0.9.4 of sqlkit package for Python.
http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/
This release
------------
This release adds support for printing from sqlkit using OpenOffice
templates that in turn uses 'uno' module provided from the OpenOffice
project and a custom system that allows to write report templates w/o any
programming know-how.
This module called 'oootemplate', can be used from any Python program
independently from the rest of sqlkit.
The python package
------------------
SQLkit PyGtk package provides Mask and Table widgets to edit database
data. It's meant as a base for database desktop applications.
The application
---------------
It also provides 'sqledit' a PyGTK application based on sqlkit that can be
used from command line to browse and edit data.
The package has 2 very rich demo suites for sql widgets (the main one in
sqlkit/demo/sql/demo.py) and for layout creation
