As long as it has a primary key of id then you are good.

The first thing you will need to do is fake_migrate=True so web2py
will generate the .table files.

So define you db.define_table statements exactly like your existing database.

make sure to pass fake_migrate=True to these tables

db.define_table('hi', Field('hello', default='world'), fake_migrate=True)

Run appadmin once, this will generate your .table files that web2py
uses to keep track of migrations.

Then remove fake_migrate, or set it to False. You will now be able to
use the table.

If you have legacy databases that have primary keys other than ``id``
you will need to use KeyedTables
