It shouldn't be a problem. Just pass the right connection params to erlydb:start(), create a module for the tables you want to use and put these modules in src/components, and call erlyweb:compile() to generate the DB abstraction functions. Then, you can use the generated functions either from the shell or from your application code. The only limitation you might run into is in handling relations: if the schema doesn't follow ErlyWeb's foreign key naming conventions, the relational features may not work.
