[Question] database source

Feature requests
1

Hello i saw that its not supported to generate/build from a database source. I used to do that in gatsby for some stuff and i remember once i used some posts from an old wordpress website that i had backed up here. also with strapi.

wouldnt this feature be interesting? import data from databases like sql and nosql to build the static pages?

for me this usecase makes sense. If it makes sense for others and also for the Zola Project i would love to fork it and start working in it for it becoming a new future feature.

I don’t know that it makes sense for Zola, but I do this regularly with https://pocketbase.io and essentially create a fresh script translating the contents into markdown every time. Not having to do that every time would be nice (and something I think about building every once in a while) but is fully not within my expectations of what Zola does.
