Django meets Firebird

Nice blog post about firebird and django

I found this nice project Django-Firebird that will make Django able to use Firebird as the database backend. The process of switching from MySQL to Firebird is painless, but there are some adjustment needed.

FSQL 1.8.2 released

Some changes in the latest version (FSQL v1.8.2, 2009-12-10):

bugfixes: RESTORE command, SHOW INDEX command, SHOW PROC command, executing DDL with AUTODDL OFF
some minor improvements and bugfixes that I do not remember 🙂
support for FB2.5
new commands NBACKUP, NRESTORE
new parametrs for RESTORE (FIX_FSS_DATA, FIX_FSS_METADATA)
commands for managing users via services API now prepended with SVC_MGR, to distinguish them from built-in FB commands.

Firebirdsql – Web Server is up, but….

Thanks to the progressive death of the NAS server from which all our Internet facilities are served, we lost everything – Tracker, website, Wiki, Windows snapshots and news mirrors – piece-by-piece over the past days.

By gargantuan effort, Sean Leyne and his colleagues at Broadview have been reconstructing our infrastructure from scratch. The main website http://www.firebirdsql.org is up but some pieces, such as Windows snapshots, are still missing.  Windows snapshots should be available some time today.

The other servers are more challenging, requiring radical reconstruction using new versions of underlying software, and will take time.

For now, if you find broken links (other than those to our other servers) then please feel free to inform us via a message to this list.

More info as it comes to light.

A sample of useful Firebird stored procedure script

This stored procedures script will display a report of what are the items the customer purchase within the given period of time.

One of the things I like with Firebird is their stored procedure features. In my experience with MSSQL and MySQL5 doing stored procedure has been easier with Firebird and yet powerful. I fell in love with it and making stored procedure as my usual solution for data manipulation.
