    <p>The command-line Python, IMO, definitely comes first. Get that to work, since that's the core of what you're doing.</p> <p>The issue is that using a web framework's ORM from a command line application isn't obvious. Django provides specific instructions for using their ORM from a command-line app. Those are annoying at first, but I think they're a life-saver in the long run. I use it heavily for giant uploads of customer-supplied files.</p> <p>Don't use bare CGI. It's not impossible, but too many things can go wrong, and they've all been solved by the frameworks. Why reinvent something? Just use someone else's code.</p> <p>Frameworks involve learning, but no real "overhead". They're not slow. They're code you don't have to write or debug.</p> <ol> <li><p>Learn some Python.</p></li> <li><p>Do the <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/" rel="noreferrer">Django</a> tutorial.</p></li> <li><p>Start to build a web app.</p> <p>a. Start a Django project. Build a small application in that project.</p> <p>b. Build your new model using the Django ORM. Create a Django unit test for the model. Be sure that it works. You'll be able to use the default admin pages and do a lot of playing around. Just don't build the <em>entire</em> web site yet.</p></li> <li><p>Get your command-line app to work using Django ORM. Essentially, you have to finesse the settings file for this app to work nicely. See the <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/settings/#topics-settings" rel="noreferrer">settings/configuration</a> section. </p></li> <li><p>Once you've got your command line and the default admin running, you can finish the web app.</p></li> </ol> <p>Here's the golden rule of frameworks: <strong>It's code you don't have to write, debug or maintain.</strong> Use them.</p>

    1. COIn releasing my application, I then release it with a Django dependency but don't distribute Django, correct? I'm also concerned about making things too heavy with unneeded code in the command line app. I will look more closely at Django, thanks.

    2. CODjango is a web application framework. You install it on a web server to use it. If you want to donate it into the public domain, you donate your application -- nothing else.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
