Python based web reporting tool?
Most reporting tools are stuck in the '80s: a time when you 'painted' a report intended to be printed that completely lacked integration with other reports.
Sometimes we still need that.  If you need to print an invoice, you're pretty much stuck with that kind of functionality.  But in general, most reporting these days consists of multiple queries/charts/graphs/tables per page with drill-down built directly into it.
If you've got enough of a need go with an OLAP tool - then you don't even code the reports, your users (theoretically) can.  If not, I've seldom seen a scenario in which a "reporting tool" was better than using something like Chart Director with a language like php, perl, python, ruby, etc.
I have a question for those of you doing web work with python. Is
anyone familiar with a python based reporting tool?  I am about to
start on a pretty big web app and will need the ability to do some end
user reporting (invoices, revenue reports, etc). It can be an existing
django app or anything python based so I can hook into it. Thanks!
