I take backups regularly, at say time1, time2, time3.
If I provide this function:
def myaction():
import cStringIO
file = cStringIO.StringIO()
db(...).select().export_to_csv_file(file)
return file.getvalue()
I'll be able to download DB at current state, not of previous times. I
want to download csv files having old databases.
