Can I use ZODB instead of running MySQL (or equivalent) for holding a simple collection of records? I'm not really sure about the capabilities of ZODB and would appreciate any pointers to docs I should read. -- John

If you intend to use "naked" ZODB, then have a look at http://zope.org/Documentation/Articles/ZODB1 http://zope.org/Documentation/Articles/ZODB2 If you want to work through Zope, then it's a much broader question. This is probably a good place to start: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/ See also: http://www.python.org/workshops/2000-01/proceedings/papers/fulton/zodb3.html --jcc
Thanks for these pointers. It looks like a lot of work to get up to speed and I guess the easiest way I will learn how this works is looking at an existing app if one is available. What I am thinking about is managing a simple membership list. Is there something already available that I could try adapting to my needs to see if ZODB will provide what I need? -- John On Tue, Oct 05, 2004 at 09:11:16PM -0500, J. Cameron Cooper wrote:

For example if you just use Ex(tensible)UserFolder (should be in the products) you have membership, registration, and can choose Btree-Usermanager, BTree-Propertymanager which should be fast enugh for your needs. Regards Tino

I don't see it? Is it part of Zope or a seperate product? I'm running Zope 2.6.2b3 at the moment.

Well, if its not in the products list of your Zope instance, why not just have a look at Zope.org? ;) http://zope.org/Products/user_management -> http://zope.org/Members/TheJester/exUserFolder Regards Tino
