Free web reference database software for linux

The Object Oriented Database Kit is a set of tools to help database applications developers to handle database communication, reporting, and printing. It has a solid, stable, and easy to use API. The project is also GUI toolkit agnostic and portable.

Used Textbook Database provides a database for listing used textbooks.

Used Textbook Database is a Web-based textbook database that lets users to create an account and list their used textbooks or books.

It is very modular and customizable and allows for easy integration into an existing Web site.

XML::DB::Database::Exist is a Perl module with XML:DB driver for the eXist database.

SYNOPSIS

use XML::DB::Database::Exist;

This is the eXist XML-RPC driver. It is intended to be used through the XML:DB API, so that it is never called directly from user code. It implements the internal API defined in XML::DB::Database

The methods required to implement the Database interface are documented in Database.pm; only methods unique to eXist, and not required by the XML:DB API are documented here.

SA Web Framework project is a complete PHP application framework, based on the Front Controller Pattern.
SA stands for SkyApp? and is the framework which we developed and which we are using here at Skyweb.
SA is open source and released under LGPL license which means you can use it for free.
SA relies heavily on PEAR which gives us access to some nice features like mime mail handling, independent database abstraction layer, destructors, database session storing and many more.
SA was developed and tested using PHP 4.4.0.
Enhancements:
- The whole application stack has been rewritten in order to take advantage of the PHP5 object model.
- Some new classes and interfaces were introduced and the existing ones were completely rewritten.
- A new Page handling concept was implemented.
- The default page class now extends Smarty.

Zild Database Library implements a small and easy to use database API with an easy to use API.
Main features:
- ability to connect to multiple database systems
- zero runtime configuration
- ability to connect using a URL scheme
- thread-safe connection pooling.

XAO::Web is a part of XAO open source web services suite. It allows to build dynamic web content using data, templates and external input.
The distinguishing feature of XAO::Web is in its modular design where almost every aspect of functionality can be altered and alterations can be re-used. No complex code is embedded in the templates which allows to upgrade code and templates separately or maintain multiple visual representations of the same functionality at the same time.
Installation
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
sudo make install
Saying "install XAO::Web" from the CPAN shell is a good way too:
perl -MCPAN -eshell
install XAO::Web
Using CPAN shell is usually the best way because all dependencies will be resolved automatically.
If you do manual installation then XAO::Web depends on at least the following modules (look into Makefile.PL or just watch closely the output of `perl Makefile.PL for additional dependencies):
XAO::Base
XAO::FS
Digest::MD5
Error
MIME::Lite
Test::Unit
When you run "perl Makefile.PL" you will be asked for XAO::Web test database. That database is only used when you do `make test and it have to exist. It does not matter what is inside the database, it will be completely wiped out for each test case.
Normally the database should be the same that you have used for XAO::FS tests and in case of MySQL is usually test or test_fs.
The directory where templates get installed is the same that you gave to XAO::Base when you installed it. Normally that directory is /usr/local/xao -- we will assume that for the rest of the document.
Main features:
- Perl code is not mixed with templates. Templates can be normal HTML files if no processing is required.
- A specific site can replace or modify standard XAO::Web objects if required by overriding or extending their methods. You do not need to re-implement entire object to make a site specific change. In case of system object upgrade or bug fix there is no need to alter site-specific changes normally.
- Site can create any extension objects or embed third-party extensions as well.
- One server can serve arbitrary number of XAO::Web sites each with however extended functionality without creating any conflicts. That includes different modifications to the system objects for different sites.
- Not limited to Web environment, allows to build any dynamic content -- content of mail messages or reports for instance.
- Works with CGI or mod_perl (mod_perl is recommended for production grade sites).
- If used in mod_perl mode improves performance by using caching of configuration, parsed templates, database handlers and so on.
- XAO::Web is by default integrated with XAO::FS (see XAO::FS) as a database layer, but this is not a requrement -- if for any reason a different database must be used for a site it can be easily and gracefully achieved.
- Hosting providers can allow their customers to build very complex sites without allowing them to execute arbitrary code, by allowing to modify only templates.
Enhancements:
- Fixed a problem with Web.pm for mod_perl usage, introduced last minute just before releasing 1.06

Sporniket Web Site System project is a set of PHP scripts that allow you to build and manage a Web site.

Two modules are available: Mini File Commander, a Web interface to manage files, and Cabbage, a system to quickly build a Website with organised content without using a database.
