Rekall - 2.3.4

Rekall is a database front end (in the manner of Microsoft Access) for a range of SQL database servers. This binary release of Rekall includes drivers for xbase/xbaseSQL, MySQL and PostgreSQL(the xbase/xbaseSQL package for creating/working with smaller, personal databases is even included). Some features of Rekall:

• Access to MySQL (support included with this binary) and PostgreSQL (no support included with this binary) databases. It can also access XBase files with a restricted set of SQL. Further SQL database servers will be added in the future. A single Rekall "database" can access one or more SQL databases.
• Access to the underlying database types. As of version 1.0.5, Rekall provides access to almost all the types which the SQL database servers provide (XBase is rather restricitive in this respect).
• Table design, and changes in design, plus the ability to view and update table data. Common functionality can be accessed, such as single column indexing (although this area needs extending, for instance to provide multiple-column indexes).
• Form and report design and execution. Forms and reports can access data directly from database tables, via arbitrary SQL (subject to the restriction that Rekall can parse it) or from queries which are defined in Rekall; both can contain arbitrarily nested sub-forms (or sub-reports).
• Scripting using the python language. An interface to Rekall itself and to the SQL database servers is provided (so that the scripts can control form and report execution, and can access data in the database). Rekall also contains an interactive python debugger. Of course, you also have full access to whatever python modules are available on your system.
• Import and export of table data in a range of formats. In fact, Rekall generalises this as a copy operation, where the copy source and destinations can include database tables, SQL queries and text files.
