Hi everyone and welcome to month #2 of the 2025 Year of Code! As mentioned in the February blog post, this is the topic to share your February project, which has the theme of databases.
I’ll start things off with my project which is an updated version of Storm, an object-relational mapping library for using SQLite with Xojo.
I’ve posted it to GitHub where you can review the readme, wiki docs and download it.
I can’t wait to see your creations this month!
Some might remember my Xojo Guest Blog Post: Docker, Database Servers and Xojo. It shows how to easily set up cubeSQL Server along with an open sourced, web based Administration Tool cubeSQL Web Admin, which is written with Xojo Web.
The February Theme is “Databases”, so cubeSQL Web Admin fits into that category.
Coincidence or not - in the last days of January (I know, that doesn’t quite count) I’ve added a new feature to that project.
For the interested ones: here is the Pull Request #27: Server Preferences
In the early days of February (before the Theme has been announced) I’ve prepared the project to benefit of newer Xojo Web Features (e.g. assign CSSClasses in the Xojo IDE instead of some Javascript Magic) and started to test it with the most current Xojo Release 2024r4.2. So the next official Release of cubeSQL Web Admin will be built with it.
If you want to try the Xojo Web Application cubeSQL Web Admin yourself, but you don’t have access to a cubeSQL Server I encourage you to look at the Xojo Guest Blog Post: Docker, Database Servers and Xojo. Using Docker Compose you can easily set up many Database Servers without hassle and messy (de)installation.
cubeSQL is a fully-featured and high-performance relational database management system built on top of the SQLite database engine. It is the ideal database server for both developers who want to convert a single user database solution to a multi-user project and for companies looking for an affordable, easy to use and easy to maintain database management system.
As soon as I’ve seen this month’s theme, your project instantly came to my mind
