Hi all, I'm the leading developer of IMDbPY [1], a python package to access and manage information of the IMDb [2] internet movie database; it can work fetching data from the web site and from a local copy of the data, conveniently put in a database.
So far I've used SQLObject but, due to popular demand, from now on I'll also support SQLAlchemy. In the CVS [3] there's a _working_ prototype, but not being a SQLAlchemy expert I wonder if someone is interested in helping a bit: the code still contains many TODO/FIXME/XXX notices, and there's for sure room for improvements. If you want to help, read these 2 messages [4] and subscribe to the mailing list. :-) Beware that the ORMs (both of them) are used in a somewhat unusual way (and a bit of black magic is involved here and there), and that the SQLAlchemy support is in its very early stage (I've started only 3 or 4 days ago), so don't be too shocked or too rude. ;-) Oh, if you're wondering... yes: black magic means that the rest of the code still follows the logic of SQLObject, and that I wrote a series of adapters to make SQLAlchemy behave like SQLObject classes/instances (limited to what was required by my application: it's not a complete or robust adapter SQLObject->SQLAlchemy - I'm not THAT crazy, despite what my detractors say ;-) Thank you in advance! +++ [1] http://imdbpy.sf.net/ [2] http://imdb.com/ [3] http://imdbpy.sourceforge.net/?page=download#cvs if it's down - sf.net is migrating its servers - I can send tgz/zip archives.
