A PloneFormGen Action Adapter for SQL storage
The goal for this package is:
- to make SQL storage from PloneFormGen easy
- to be usable with collective.megaphone
To achieve this, we create a new PloneFormGen action-adapter. This uses SQLAlchemy (collective.lead) to save the form data to the database. (SQLAlchemy should work on most SQL dialects.)
You could also save PFG data in SQL by using a Z SQL Method as an after-validation script, as described in the SQL-CRUD-tutorial. This works, but:
- it's a lot of manual work, and quite cumbersome for ordinary users
- it doesn't work with collective.megaphone (see mailinglist-discussion)
