@geier1993 is this still relevant?

[pgeier]

Think it was related to the pyfdb PR that we just closed... I know that Tom has introduced something similar back then???

Is there something similar available now... without having to use the ENV variables to point to a fdb root???

I think back then we were writing the fdb compare tool....

I'll close this due to the implemented solution in pyfdb (which is able to construct a fdb from a config string). In case something like this is needed still, feel free to re-open.
