[web2py] Re: script to clone a database
Massimo, this is awesome, thanks!:) I wrapped the contents of your main() in a function (used in script, not web) where i can pass in these args: model=None - if not None, points to a model. This will re-write the model used in script in the webApp/applications/models dir (db.py) - this lets me share the db between script and webApp seamlessly :) otherDB=None- name the DB, or default to 'storage.sqlite' dbfolder=None - specify db folder. if None, use current dir clean=False - if True, will delete all tables, db, log (i do this so each build has a fresh new SQLite DB) truncate=False - if True, just truncate, don't delete (i use this as well in some places, but now makes more sense to use along side your script.

If you can make the script user optparse, would you mail it to me? I happy to replace mine with your improved one.

Great, I was doing this manually, this really helps codify the procedure. The export_to_csv_file and import_from_csv_file routines are the magic with how they fix up all the foreign keys to match the new primary key values.
