Gramps Database API.

Database Architecture
=====================

Access to the database is made through Python classes. Exactly
what functionality you have is dependent on the properties of the
database. For example, if you are accessing a read-only view, then
you will only have access to a subset of the methods available.

At the root of any database interface is either :py:class:`.DbReadBase` and/or
:py:class:`.DbWriteBase`. These define the methods to read and write to a
database, respectively.

The full database hierarchy is:

- :py:class:`.DbBsddb` - read and write implementation to BSDDB databases

  * :py:class:`.DbWriteBase` - virtual and implementation-independent methods
    for reading data

  * :py:class:`.DbBsddbRead` - read-only (accessors, getters) implementation
    to BSDDB databases

    + :py:class:`.DbReadBase` - virtual and implementation-independent
      methods for reading data

    + :py:class:`.Callback` - callback and signal functions

  * :py:class:`.UpdateCallback` - callback functionality

DbBsddb
=======

The :py:class:`.DbBsddb` interface defines a hierarchical database
(non-relational) written in
`PyBSDDB <http://www.jcea.es/programacion/pybsddb.htm>`_. There is no
such thing as a database schema, and the meaning of the data is
defined in the Python classes above. The data is stored as pickled
tuples and unserialized into the primary data types (below).

More details can be found in the manual's
`Using database API <http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Using_database_API>`_.
