drizzle docs are whacked out

[Mike Bayer]

looks like "mysql" was badly search and replaced, also there's an ancient note about the use_unicode thing which shows a non-drizzle URL. this doc should mention that Drizzle is a mysql variant and then anything that is common with the MySQL doc should be trimmed out.

(original author: diana) I'm trying to get the tests to pass with: ./sqla_nose.py --dburi=drizzle

The attached patch (drizzle_tests.patch) only moves the bar a bit.

Before: FAILED (SKIP=107, errors=72, failures=16)

After: FAILED (SKIP=114, errors=46, failures=8)

I need to figure out how to get the unit testing setup/teardown/etc methods working before I can go much further on this.

(OperationalError) (1744, 'Transactional DDL not supported')

Any hints would be much appreciated. Thanks!

im not extremely concerned about the unit tests passing, I wonder how drizzle would even make the decision that we're doing transactional DDL ? calling commit ? what makes it say that ?

the ticket here only referred to the documentation sections not being written correctly in drizzle/base.py and elsewhere.

Okie dokie, thx. I did start with just the docs, but in the process I was trying to write tests to suss out which parts of the existing docs were fact vs. fallacy aside from the obvious (drizzle-python vs. mysql-python, etc).

(original author: diana) The attached patch mostly just deletes the drizzle documentation and points the user at the mysql documentation.

I also did a pep8/unused imports pass of the drizzle dir, and removed SET from drizzle's {{{all}}} in {{{init.py}}} since drizzle doesn't support SET.
