Hi Kevin,
I realize this is an old thread, but if you're still around, I just wanted
to confirm whether this script is capable of extracting and creating
foreign-keys with the reference keyword? I'm thinking not, since it did
not give me any after I ran it, but perhaps there's an option I'm
At my part ,i ran the extract_mysql_models script but the output model file
was not editable and also got ticket when I put it in the app folder as I
tried to see what was happening with app admin. Any thoughts ? I 'm
guessing I ' ll have to either rearrange my database or find a solution
Yes, this is a replacement.
Trivial differences - just replaced MySQLdb references to
gluon.contrib.pymysql, removed the comment up top about depending on
MySQLdb, and added .. to the python path so that it can find gluon.contrib
even if the web2py directory isn't in your system pythonpath.
Great idea - I was not aware of pymysql. I had assumed web2py depended on an
external MySQLdb module, which I already had installed.
I changed the couple of lines to make it use gluon.contrib.pymysql, and it
appears to still work. Revised copy is attached.

Create the web2py code
what are the differences between this one and the original? Should
this be a replacement?

OK all I feel quite stupid
I think I need the ABC of running this
I have placed the file in a location where I know where it is and it
can be seen in the web2py list
I have tried putting the call into shell and into a web2py app
I have used IDLE (python) and have tried shell on web2py
I believe
The extract_mysql_models.py script runs at the command line - either from
cmd.exe in Windows or a Terminal window in Mac / Linux. Which operating
system are you running? I can try to walk you through the steps.
Also, I don't believe MySQLdb is included with web2py by default, but it is
easy to
try to implement it with pymysql which is shipped with web2py
(gluon.contrib.pymysql)
Oh I think reply to author was an email - I think I replied but it is not
showing here?
Hi all
OK I got it to work
I found a MySQLdb for python 2.5 .exe on sourceforge
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/files%2Fmysql-python%2F1.2.2/
then the rest I got sorted through the command line
apologies for idiocy
thank you for all your help it is much appreciated

Response much appreciated
I understand some of the defining and forms bits and want to use web2py - I
do have rudimentary working apps
but i was struggling to write the web2py code to create the db tables to
match the mysql db tables i already have
it was really the bit about changing the
just trying to get to a point where i can do the db structure scrape to
create the web2py db code as i interpret that is what your code does
yes the script uses the mysql and mysqldump excecutables to dump the
table structures and parses that with regular expressions
Nice work Kevin, I have
Looks great, thanks for the addition. I worked on this a bit when it first
was added but since I don't use mysql any more in the application I am
working on and have a high workload I never got any further.
Hey Kevin,
This is sweet! thanks for that!
Mart :)

apologies I am a newbie
I believe that this may be what I was searching for as I have an existing
mySQL db and am struggling getting my head into the web2py
Can I add the mysqldb module in web2py and run this code there and if so -

sorry if this seems too simple

In web2py, you could import MySQLdb and make SQL queries directly, but you
would lose out on a lot of the time-saving features that web2py offers, such
as automatic form generation for database tables. Instead, you would
typically use web2py's DAL (Database Abstraction Layer), which provides a
