Services with MySQL Support

After looking around a lot for certain services, and going through many many types, i've not found any excluding Anope with a database storage of MySQL.

Now, I noticed the development build of Anope has MySQL database storage, but that seems to be it, the stable build does not?

I don't quite wish to place a developmental build into live run, even though I do not have a super large network.

Does anyone know offhand recommendations for a decent MySQL databased Services module, also that might make it useful for remote access to it, cause I have a staff system I programmed for use on my network, which if I do manage to get a MySQL based database running I would most likely like to implement into it for system editing of certain user features, and also to implement user nickname registration and what not on my website.

I checked google, the unreal links page, even searched the forums, didn't come up with anything that really provided me with what I was looking for unless I missed something o.o;

Thanks for the time.

Anope [as is] won't really allow you to do a lot with it's SQL, especially considering it's read-only, and the schema will [more than likely] change if/when 2.0 ever happens.

Atheme supports readable SQL, and uses XMLRPC to achieve things like web registration.

unservices [really crap, bahamut-only] services had realtime sql, I hacked these into something almost usable, might upload my source so someone can keep going if they want someday.

sirv3 - the elusive APPARANTLY have SQL support, but as I've seen nothing of them really, can't comment on their use.

There's a few, off the top of my head.

Hrm... I've got Anope on my Development Unreal offhand, the MySQL side of it seems to work semi okay, I already set up a basic interface to test how it would access the database to modify information from a system, and it seems to work, not sure what you meant by read only though.

I'll prob play with it a bit more, see what I can tweak around with it, thanks for the suggestions, i'll most likely look into all that also.

as in: anope ignores any changes you make to that database. Read the anope documentation.

And, it works fine-- till you start getting a larger network.
