Hi group, Is it possible for one to store incoming user data (e.g. those submitted by users on a page) in memory, manipulate them in memory, and send them back with web2py? Or do I need to external modules/libraries to do that? So far, it seems by default all user submitted data are written to database in web2py.
More specifically, I want to implement this sort of logic on the server side: the server waits for a pre-defined number of pieces data from different users, and once all the data are in, the server processes the set of data, saves the results in db and sends them back to respective users. The most obvious way I can think of is to keep (and track) the incoming data in memory and only write to the db after they're processed. Is this something that we can do using the existing functionalities of web2py? Thanks!
