Scaffold Web2py Models and SQLForm.smartgrid

[Kevin Keller]

Hello, 

has anyone written a scaffolder ideally web based, where a non technical user can define tables and fields including relations 

and the new app getes generated and put into the applications folder or by creating a new controller with SQLFORM.smartgrid on the 

tables defined by the user?

I want to make it easy for non-technical users to add crud pages in web2py easily. 

I have worked with the admin wizard app and am looking at it now for some inspiration, but 

it is still too technical for a non technical user with terms like "tables" and "auth_table" pre-defined etc and also needing to 

know the field types by heart etc.

I will probably just rewrite the wizard to be more user friendly and expose it in my web2py app. 

but if anyone has already done something similiar, please let me know. 

Thanks!

This is very old. Not sure anybody is maintaining it and what the limitations are. It never got much love.

It is on my web site so I must have the source code if you want it.
