DataController

DataController is a main module in FastData.

DataController is a fast method of providing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionality.

You can use this simple function to provide CRUD and customize the DataController’s presentation with CSS.

Install TGFastData

FastData has been split from TurboGears core and is now a plugin.

Before you can take advantage of DataController, you need to install the FastData plugin first.

$ sudo easy_install -f http://www.turbogears.org/download/index.html TGFastData

Use DataController

controllers.py:

from turbogears import controllers
from tgfastdata import DataController
from model import MyModelClass

class MyApp(controllers.RootController):
    mycrud = DataController(MyModelClass) # provides a quick
                                          # and dirty CatWalk-like
                                          # CRUD interface for your MyModelClass

Note:

TGFastData is still in development, it currently only supports the SQLObject database provider.
