Re: Convert a database file to Html format - Python perhaps ?

I have used the free version John - and it works fine but ...

It is only usable with MySQL - so you have to access Db2 tables via the Db2 Storage engine. Also it is display only if I recall correctly - no editing option.

I used to use it on my Mac where most of my local tables are MySQL but since the $300 version I use permits multiple servers under the one license I don't use it any more.

It is not free - but at $200 (or $300 for the professional version that I use) I find PHP Grid unbeatable.

It does look nice. Very, very reasonable price for what you are
getting. It looks like there are even other tiers, including a free
"Lite" version. I'm not sure how useful that level is, but I would
expect it's easily worth $0 or more. ;)

I don't know of any Python-based tools that are of similar polish and
user-orientation. Python does have similarly powerful tools that are
geared toward scientists and engineers. Mainly, I'm thinking of
pandas, which is of sufficiently high level that many demonstrations
are also just three lines. And it's completely free (as in beer and
speech). But unfortunately for folks who want to use it on IBM i, it
is built on top of libraries which must be natively compiled (mainly C
code for low-level implementation, wrapped by Python). And while
Python on Linux will compile those libraries for you on the fly (if
they were not pre-installed), PASE is not there yet.
