Scaffolding in pylons

Question

Is there anything similar to rails' scaffolding for pylons? I've been poking around google, but only found this thing called dbsprockets, which is fine, although probably way too much for my needs. What I really need is a basic CRUD that is based on the SQLAlchemy model.

Answer 1

The question is super old, but hell: http://code.google.com/p/formalchemy/

Gives you basic crud out of the box, customizable to do even relatively complex things easily, and gives you a drop-in Pylons admin app too (written and customizable with the same api, no magic).

Answer 2

I hear you, I've followed the Pylons mailing list for a while looking for something similar. There have been some attempts in the past (see AdminPylon and Restin) but none have really kept up with SQLAlchemy's rapidly developing orm api.

Since DBSprockets is likely to be incorporated into TurboGears it will likely be maintained. I'd bite the bullet and go with that.
