python - monetdb with web.py (raise UnknownDB, dbn issue) -

i tried using web.py framework monetdb.

this implementation code :

import web  render = web.template.render('templates/') db       = web.database(dbn = 'monetdbd', user = 'monetdb', pw = 'monetdb', db = 'test')  urls = (     '/','index' )   class index:     def get(self,name):         xselect = db.select(x)         return render.index(xselect)  if __name__ == "__main__":     app = web.application(urls,globals())     app.run() 

i have got following error message while running python code.py

traceback (most recent call last):   file "code.py", line 4, in <module>     db       = web.database(dbn = 'monetdbd', user = 'monetdb', pw = 'monetdb', db = 'test')   file "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/web.py-0.37-py2.7.egg/web/db.py", line 1145, in database     raise unknowndb, dbn web.db.unknowndb: monetdbd 

the database server running:

bmartis@bmartis-virtualbox:~/desktop/monetdb/web$ ps ucx| grep -i monetdb bmartis   2482  0.0  0.0  63956  2476 ?        ssl  jun29   0:33 monetdbd bmartis@bmartis-virtualbox:~/desktop/monetdb/web$ 

i don't understand wrong db definition here. what's right syntax or monetdb doesn't have support this?

it looks likes web2py doesn't support monetdb @ moment. can find full list of supported databases , required drivers in chapter 6 of web2py complete reference manual. of today looks below:

• sqlite - sqlite3 or pysqlite2 or zxjdbc (on jython)
• postgresql - psycopg2 or pg8000 or zxjdbc (on jython)
• mysql - pymysql or mysqld
• oracle - cx_oracle
• mssql - pyodbc or pypyodbc
• firebird - kinterbasdb or fdb or pyodbc
• db2 - pyodbc
• informix - informixdb
• ingres - ingresdbi
• cubrid - cubriddb
• sybase - sybase
• teradata - pyodbc
• sapdb - sapdb
• mongodb - pymongo
• imap - imaplib
