Hi everybody. I have this situation:
1. I need to extract data from an Informix Database. 2. Informix is not a supported engine in SqlAlchemy. 3. There is a python informix driver, in order for it to work you must install the informix SDK, and is definitely a PITA. 4. Informix now have a REST interface, you can even execute SQL sentences throught the REST interface and have the results in JSON, no need to install client libraries, good ! https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGU8G_12.1.0/com.ibm.json.doc/ids_json_sql_rest.htm Since I can execute any SQL statement via REST , I suppose I can develop some "driver" for informix using this REST interface, in the beginning the idea is to execute any arbitrary SQL statement that implements the whole SqlAlchemy functionality. For those who already know how to develop such drivers I would like do receive some hints about where to start with that, or if there is some documentation about where to start I will appreciate such information. Thanks. -- Nestor -- SQLAlchemy - The Python SQL Toolkit and Object Relational Mapper http://www.sqlalchemy.org/ To post example code, please provide an MCVE: Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable Example.
