Hi,
Most of the web applications I work on are nothing more than front-ends
to postgresql. I have used Perl (CGI), Java, C# and am now looking at
Django. Each generation of frameworks lessens the pain of donig
web-apps, but it still seems redundant.
Does any one know of a framework where the database server (or a
web/app server integrated with a DB server) serves web pages? The
database contains the data-model; names of tables, names of attributes,
their types, foreign key relationships among tables...that's A LOT of
information. Sql query, views or stored procs could serve as 'reports'
served off the data. Perhaps the only thing that needs to be outside a
database is something that describes how the data is to be displayed
(CSS). There could be some java/c#/python/ruby/whatever engine which
takes all the information provided in the database and generate
html/xhtml, default css, javascript validation, etc....but all that
should be invisible to the user.
Any one know of such a framework?
(I'm asking this in pgsql because such a framework will have to be
fairly closely linked to a database...and I mainly use pgsql).
