Glom 1.4.0发布了。Glom是一个简单易用的数据库系统,已经渐渐得变得更有用。主要的新功能是自主,所以你不需要配置一台PostgreSQL服务器。
New features in Glom 1.4:
- Self-hosting: Databases can now be created in a local directory,
without the pain of configuring a central PostgreSQL server. PostreSQL
is still used to host the database on your local computer. You may, for
instance, send an archive of this directory in an email. PostgreSQL is
therefore now a non-optional dependency.
In future, a client-only version of Glom might be available for embedded devices. - Details view:
- Related Records: Allow viewing of doubly-related records.
- A vertical scrollbar now allows the window to be smaller when necessary on your screen
- List View: Now supports static text items, static pictures, and script buttons, as the Details view already did
- Field Formatting: Allow the user to remove a previously-chosen Also Show field.
- Translations: Added Import and Export buttons, so you can use the standard .po format.
- Calculated Fields and Button Scripts: Now uses Python syntax highlighting, via GtkSourceView.
- Added a Script Library to the Developer menu, for Python code that should be reused (via Import) in several scripts.
- Added –debug_sql commmand-line option, which prints out the generated SQL commands.
