- If it's just for the processing of the request, locals should be fine (or add to current if you need models to access it). - If it's just for the current session, session can store some stuff (I think pickling requirements are the limitation). - If it has to persist indefinitely, then you need to use a file, or else create a table that will later be dropped. /dps > On Tuesday, May 16, 2017 at 9:09:44 PM UTC+8, Anthony wrote: >> >> On Tuesday, May 16, 2017 at 8:16:25 AM UTC-4, lyn2py wrote: >>> >>> Is there is a way to define a table without adding it to the sqlite >>> database?
