ZCatalog catalogues objects.

Objects must help ZCatalog by providing attributes and/or
parameterless methods. When the object is indexed, ZCatalog
accesses the attributes/methods to obtain the terms the
object should be indexed for.
And the objects must be URL addressable,
because they are itentified inside the catalog by their URL.

ZCatalog can index any object that satisfies these
requirements.

You probably must work that your dynamic objects with database
contents do that.
