Could be in any of 1. reliably 2. push xml 3. database 4. repeatedly 5. basic structure I'm going to assume 5. So... Forget about all the other stuff -- django, web, spyne etc Just 2 pieces of the jigsaw to start with - your database engine -- mysql, sqlite, postgres... whatever - your xml input with python as the glue inbetween. 1. So you can even whittle down the XML schema to something related to what you finally need but relatively trivial 2. Make a correspondingly (if necessary trivialized) sql schema 3. Make a bit of python glue to read the first (as a file) and write out the second 4. Debug the output 5. De-trivialize your simplifications 6. Fit into the larger framework [I wrote the above as though to a somewhat inexperienced programmer. An experienced programmer will find it condescending.
