The way to develope a graphical application to manage a Postgres database
Hi, I'm new to python. I'm searching for a way to develope a Python graphical application for a Postgresql database. I have installed on my Debian GNU/Linux testing/sid system many python packages, among others: eric, geany, idle, ninja-ide, pida (it doesn't work here), python2.7, python-easygui, python-forgetsql, python-gasp, python-glade2, python-gobject-2, python-gtk2, python-pip, python-pygresql, python-pyside.qtsql, python-subversion, python-tk, python-wxglade, spyder, python3-psycopg2, python-psycopg2, XRCed. I did search in the Google but can't find any good tutorial except for wxpython tutorial: http://wiki.wxpython.org/FrontPage, wxGlade tutorial: http://wiki.wxpython.org/WxGladeTutorial There is a tutorial for using python-psycopg2 here: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Psycopg2_Tutorial Still I don't know how to put these all together? XRCed is the most interesting way for me. Can one advices me where to go? -- Regards from Pal -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Say I start to create a GUI with XRCed for such an application for managing a concrete postgresql database. On a Frame (window) which object should I draw to get a Table of the database when I write the code? If I want to use say python-pygresql to connect to the database then I must study the http://www.pygresql.org/pg.html documentation and after that I must to write code to connect it with the GUI. Is on the Internet such a tutorial that can help me in this effort? -- Regards from Pal -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I'm exploring now Dabo. -- Regards from Pal -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Works very well for > me, but I do know SQL and Postgres. Well, I tried out many adviced ways but none of them works on my Debian GNU/Linux testing/sid system. Always get some error in one of the part of the software. Can you give a short tutorial for newbies how to start to develope with tools you used successfully? -- Regards from Pal -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
