ok,that makes sense.. is there a way to pass in -M from within a
script (to itself)?

Thanks again :)

Whitout -M web2py DAL does not know which tables exist and must be

quick question... I think i would like to run this script (export
mssql db to cvs) with dal stand alone... since this ia production
server I would want to run it as simple scheduled executable - just
the script sitting on the gluon folder. Am I still able to force the
script to look at the the module with the -M ?

Thanks,

Mart :)

2010-11-15 Thread mart
ah, no, I was not using that, but will give it a go now :) thanks
for that :)

Here is something that I would like to understand and possibly fix
(and maybe those cmd switches will fix it
?) While I was able to connect to the mssql db locally, doing
db.tables returned an empty list... But, i could see the tables, etc,
using something like razor...  Could it be because of the state of the
DB? its sitting on SQL server 2005, and I can almost guarantee that it
was never maintained (at least  don't see any evidence of that)... or
maybe, that should not matter?

Thanks

Mart :)

2010-11-15 Thread mdipierro
This is the correct syntax.

db.export_to_csv_file(open('somefile.csv', 'wb'))

the problem is that db.does not see the models. Are you using?

python -S app -M -N -R yourscript.py
