HTSQL 2.2.1 is released
Published by cce on 2011-12-15
The final release for 2.2 series is now available. This release
was focused on usability improvements, metadata functionality gaps,
and better Python integration. In this release we include:
- support for configuration files and plugin parameters
- a web-based query editor with highlighting & auto-completion (tweak.shell)
- a meta database for querying tables, columns and links (tweak.meta)
- integration with Django and SQLAlchemy (tweak.django, tweak.sqlalchemy)
- an API for making parameterized queries from Python applications
- improved database introspection, error messages, and usability fixes
- binary packages for Debian and RHEL
We also added a tweak.override plugin to provide granular control
over the introspected database catalog; this plugin allows you to:
- restrict access to particular tables and columns
- provide missing unique and foreign key constraints
- change table, column and link labels
- define calculated fields and table methods
Specific changes since the last release candidate:
- Updated API for making HTSQL requests from Python application.
- Improved error messages; added suggestions for lookup errors.
- tweak.override: added support for global functions and
parameterized calculations.
